Mental health awareness training
Build the knowledge, skills and confidence needed to recognise, respond to and support mental health at work.
Mental health affects how we think, feel and perform at work. Yet too often, conversations only begin once problems have developed.
Our workplace mental health training takes a proactive, preventative approach, equipping employees and managers with the knowledge, skills and confidence to recognise early signs of mental health challenges, have supportive conversations and encourage healthier working practices.
From mental health awareness training for employees to more in-depth mental health training for managers, explore our courses below or request our full training guide to discover our wider range of training courses and programmes.

“So informative, a real eye opener. I have never really understood poor mental health, probably due to my age of 58. I now realise that things are better dealt with rather than wait until it manifests into a much bigger problem. Thanks for enlightening us, its never to late to learn!”
