| Event description | This 7 hour (one day) course will provide knowledge about common mental health conditions which will enable you to support your pupils as well as provide hints and tips for improving and maintaining your own mental wellbeing. We look at the short and long term impacts of poor mental health on both the whole person and their learning, as well as some key elements which affect young people in today's society such as social media, the internet, gaming and building resilience as well as the effect of being a young carer on young people's mental health. The course covers stress, depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, supporting people with suicidal tendencies, and the stigma of mental health and how we can play a part in encouraging people to discuss it more. You will also examine harmful coping strategies such as self harm, eating disorders and substance abuse and develop skills in starting and progressing an effective conversation about mental health as well as understanding strategies and activities which can improve mental wellbeing. | ||||||
| Additional information | All delegates will be provided with a course booklet and various resources which will be sent out prior to the training session. The course will be assessed via a workbook completed at the end of the course (either online or in hard copy) and must be returned to the trainer within 3 weeks to gain the accredited qualification. All delegates who complete the course and workbook satisfactorily will receive a regulated certificate sent via email. The session will be delivered remotely using Zoom/TEAMS. A link to the meeting will be sent out in advance. Displayed fees are subject to VAT. |
