Mental Health in the Workplace Courses

Online and workplace learning with RQF, Endorsed and Certified qualifications

Businesses are only as strong as the people they employ, and if individuals in the workforce are experiencing mental health issues or enduring disorders, their conditions can worsen due to the pressures of work.

This is why businesses should and are playing an increasing role in the intervention and prevention of mental ill health. The majority of people spend most of their lives at work, and with the prevalence of mental health issues in society, it’s imperative the workplace has a system of support in place.

learndirect’s online courses help you understand what can be done to support mental health in business, so employees feel safe and supported in their place of work.

I had a great experience with the Learn Direct team member (Harley) who helped me. He explained everything clearly, answered all of my questions, and made the enrolment process simple and stress-free. He was patient, professional, and very supportive throughout. Thanks to his help, I felt confident enrolling on my course. I really appreciate his excellent customer service and would highly recommend Learn Direct.

I'd had a full afternoon of looking at the course I was interested in and found it was a minefield which my brain was having an issue with lol. Eventually I found and went throu Learn Directs page but I was still uncertain and eventually used the talk facility which was answered by Callam. He answered all of my questions quickly and efficiently and as my questions became more in depth he suggested we talk on the phone which I agreed to. I am so glad I did as Callum had a wealth of information about the courses I was interested in. There was no pressure and assisted really well in choosing the right course for me. Because of his genuine interest, his breadth of knowledge and smashing telephone manner I signed up there and then and am looking forward to getting stuck in. As an older mature lady with much life experience this was an absolutely refreshing change. Thank you Callum
