Fully online, never half and half
Every level can be delivered fully online or fully in person. We never mix the two in one session, with some people in a room and others on a screen, because it does not give either group the experience they need.
Online courses are live and led by a trainer in real time. People talk, practise and ask questions, just as they would in a classroom.
The same qualification
Credit rated and recognised by Qualifications Scotland, with levels that are equivalent to the RQF in England. The certificate lasts three years, whichever way you train.
The same assessment
Role play scenarios, case study scenarios worked through as a group, and a multiple choice and short answer assessment.
Built for spread out teams
Ideal when your people work from home, across several sites, or in different parts of the UK.
Support afterwards
Everyone gets access to our learning app and online resources for the full three years their certificate lasts.
Every level is available online
Anyone can take any level. The right one depends on the role a person will take on. Prices cover the whole group and include VAT.
Mental Health Awareness in the Workplace
A shared understanding of mental health at work for your whole team, and what to do when you are worried about a colleague.
Managing Mental Health Awareness in the Workplace
For the people others turn to. Recognise the signs, respond with confidence and guide people towards the right support.
Advanced Leadership in Workplace Mental Health
For anyone who will take a lead in how your organisation responds, whatever their job title.
Practical training from people who do the work
Practising therapists
Our trainers work with anxiety, trauma and depression in the therapy room every week. That is what lets them handle whatever comes up in a session.
Scotland, UK and beyond
We are based in Glasgow and deliver across Scotland and the UK, and have trained teams overseas, with the same trainers and the same standard everywhere.
Support that carries on
Every course includes the Reach Out app, so your people have practical guidance to hand long after the training day.
Online mental health first aid training: your questions answered
Can you do mental health first aid training online?
Yes. All three levels of our First Aid for Mental Health training can be delivered fully online, live and led by a trainer in real time.
Is the online course the same qualification?
Yes. It is the same qualification as our classroom courses: credit rated and recognised by Qualifications Scotland, with levels that are equivalent to the RQF in England. The certificate lasts three years.
How are people assessed online?
The same way as in the classroom: role play scenarios, case study scenarios worked through as a group, and a multiple choice and short answer assessment.
Can some people join online while others are in the room?
No. We deliver each course either fully online or fully in person, never a mix. Splitting a group between a room and a screen does not give either group the experience they need.
Who is online training best for?
Teams who work from home, across several sites, or in different parts of the UK. If your people are all in one place, in person training at your workplace is often the better choice.
How much does online mental health first aid training cost?
For a group, Level 1 starts from £995, Level 2 from £1,795 and Level 3 from £2,495. Prices include VAT and cover the whole group, not each person.
