Building mental health literacy

Workplace training

Delivery model

Our training products are delivered either virtually (via Microsoft Teams) or in the classroom, with interactive lesson programmes designed to encourage delegates to participate either verbally or through the use of chat box functions. Sessions cannot be recorded due to safeguarding and intellectual property reasons.

*Training is followed up with a digital resource pack which includes further reading and relevant resources to continue the learning process.

*Please note, bitesize sessions do not include a digital resource pack. Please speak to a member of our team if you would like to access additional resources.

Delivery options:

Virtual bitesize session: 5-50 delegates

Virtual webinar course: 12-50 delegates

Virtual interactive workshop: 6-12 delegates

Classroom course: 6-16 delegates

Accredited classroom course: 8-24 delegates

Please note, if the above delegate numbers do not meet the needs of your organisation, we can explore creating a more bespoke option for you.

Duration

Virtual training options currently range from 45 minutes up to 3.5 hours. Classroom courses are typically 5-6 hours long, but can be modified to suit your organisational needs.

Please note, some of our training products can be delivered in both classroom and virtual formats. The classroom format allows for more time for interactive activities and more in-depth discussion on mental health topics due to additional safeguarding available.

Cost

Our costs start at £315+VAT and vary depending on participant numbers, duration of course, and development time of bespoke elements. A member of our team will be able to provide further information based on your needs.
