Developed by Ergonomists, Physiotherapists and Occupational Therapists, the course explains the principles behind standing workstation setup in a clear and practical format. It is suitable for individual standing-desk users as well as workplaces wanting to provide employees with education alongside the rollout of sit-stand workstations. The goal isn't to stand all day. It's to understand how to use your workstation to support more movement and position changes. Learn how to configure the desk for sitting and standing, recognise common setup issues and gradually introduce standing into the working day. Course at a Glance Duration Approximately 30 Minutes Delivery Online Course Format Video + Interactive Learning Learn How to Get More from a Sit-Stand Workstation SETUP Configure the Workstation Properly Learn the basic principles for positioning the desk, monitor, keyboard and mouse for both seated and standing work. MOVE Understand Posture Variation Explore why changing position can be more useful than replacing long periods of sitting with equally long periods of standing. START Introduce Standing Gradually Understand practical considerations when first introducing standing work rather than assuming you need to stand for long periods immediately. AWARE Recognise Common Hazards Learn about potential issues associated with standing workstations and factors to consider when setting up the surrounding work area. Supplying a Standing Desk Is Only Part of the Solution A height-adjustable desk gives the user more options, but it does not automatically teach them what height to use, where their monitor should sit or how often they should change position. Without guidance, a user can simply recreate an unsuitable workstation at a different height or stand for longer than they comfortably need to. This course provides the underlying principles so users can make more informed decisions about how they configure and use their workstation throughout the day. Who Is This Course For? New Standing Desk Users Home Office Workers Corporate Workplaces Sit-Stand Desk Rollouts The course is especially useful for workplaces that want to provide employees with practical education before or alongside the introduction of sit-stand desks. Topics Covered ✓ Why Standing? ✓ What Is a Standing Desk? ✓ The Spine: Sitting vs Standing ✓ Standing Posture ✓ Standing Desk Setup ✓ Potential Standing Desk Hazards ✓ Adjusting to Standing Developed by Workplace Health Professionals The course has been developed with input from Ergonomists, Physiotherapists and Occupational Therapists experienced in workplace ergonomics and workstation setup. The focus is practical rather than overly technical: helping users understand the key principles they can apply directly to their own sit-stand workstation. See What the Course Is About Useful for Workplace Sit-Stand Desk Rollouts Organisations investing in sit-stand desks can use the course to provide employees with a consistent introduction to how the equipment should be set up and used. This can complement the physical workstation by helping users understand why adjustment matters, how to transition between positions and what to consider when configuring their individual setup. Interactive Online Learning The course combines online learning content with video and interactive elements to help explain standing-workstation principles in a practical, easy-to-follow format. Get More from the Adjustability You Already Have In approximately 30 minutes, the Standing Workstation Ergonomics Course gives individuals and workplaces a practical introduction to sit-stand workstation setup, standing posture, movement, common hazards and the process of adjusting to standing work so the desk is used as an adjustable workstation rather than simply a desk that can go up and down.
