Blended Learning

This involves an eLearning online knowledge component and then a half day face to face training to practice your skills.

The eLearning component of the blended learning teaches you how to assist a co-worker who is developing a mental health problem or in a mental health crisis.

This course aims to give you a better understanding of mental illness in our society.

Our E-learning course covers depression, anxiety, psychosis, drugs and alcohol. We will be looking at its impact, a description of each, signs and symptoms and ways we can intervene to help people who suffer from these mental illnesses.

This will then be complemented with a half day hands on program to practice the skills that we need to support people with mental health issues both at work and in our private lives.

The eLearning component must be completed prior to the face to face training.

The half day course must be completed within a 3 month timeframe from completion of eLearning component.

Audience: everyone can benefit from this course.

Do you want to arrange an in-house blended course for your staff of 15?

Total cost for eLearning, half day training, manuals for 15: $4125 plus GST ($275 plus GST per participant)
