The Mental Health First Aid training Blended course combines a mixture of self-directed e-learning modules (5-6 hours) and one of the following instructor-led training options

  • 2 x 2.5 hour instructor-led webinars over two days,
    or

  • 1 day face-to-face training (5 hours)

The below booking option is for 5-6 hours online, and 5 hours face-to-face training in Launceston.

The self-directed e-learning module can be completed in your own time, but ideally within the week before the Zoom sessions. It will take 5 to 6 hours. The e-learning provides an overview of mental health problems and crises, along with an overview of the model for providing mental health first aid.

The instructor-led modules will be delivered via Zoom over 2 x 2.5-hour sessions, or as a one-day face-to-face session. Both of these short sessions must be completed within a week of each other. These instructor-led sessions provide an opportunity to apply the skills learnt to interact with other participants and ask questions of the instructor.
