NEW COVID-19 Update: How MHSA is Responding

At MHSA, we are committed to the health and safety of our staff, members and all classroom participants. With the recent tightening of the COVID-19 health and safety measures, announced by the Alberta Government on September 15, 2021, we are taking action to follow them and help reduce the spread of COVID-19. Starting immediately MHSA will follow the below practices to ensure everyone’s health and safety.

Contacting the MHSA :

• Employer and member contact will be made by phone, email or via virtual meetings, unless approved by management

In-person Classes :

In-person courses will still happen with the following restrictions:

• Classes in small classrooms will have a cap of 9 students per class

• Classes in large classrooms will have a cap of 18 students per class

• Social distancing of 2 m between student desks will be enforced for all classes

• Students will be checked for temperature and answer a COVID questionnaire before going into a class

• If there are multiple classes occurring at the same time, breaks times will be staggered.

• No water coolers or coffee machines in classes

• Masks are required to enter the facility and throughout the facility (i.e. hallways, washrooms etc.).

• Masks may be removed by students during a course when seated at their desk

We ask that any company wishing to do onsite training with us follow these same measures. These procedures will be verified prior to MHSA staff arrival on site.

These measures will remain in place until at least October 1st, when they will be reviewed again.
