FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

The cost of the training course, including module access and certificate, is £35 per participant.

This is a common question, mainly due to the fact that the Mental Health First Aid courses are strictly licensed for separate countries. The Awareness course is not licensed by MHFA International and therefore is not restricted in the same way.

The Mental Health Awareness course is an ideal foundation course that complements the MHFA Wales Mental Health First Aid courses.

Ideally, all members of staff should complete this course as it will broaden mental health knowledge and understanding in your organisation. Alongside your staff trained in Mental Health Awareness, a target of 10% of staff trained in Mental Health First Aid will provide an ideal support network for mental health in your organisation.

The course is delivered via the e-learning hub using online modules. Some employers add on an instructor led webinar afterwards to add to the learning for staff as that gives an opportunity to ask questions and delve a little deeper. This comes at an additional cost – get in touch to discuss you reeds.
