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 such a great experience speaking Solomon

I had such a great experience speaking with Solomon. He took the time to talk me through the Access to Nursing course in detail and explained everything in a way that was really easy for me to understand. He went through the different course lengths, from 6 months up to 24 months, and explained how the course could help me progress towards university. What I really appreciated was that Solomon didn’t just give me basic information — he broke everything down step by step, answered all my questions, and explained how they can support me with applying to university once I complete the course. He made me feel much more confident about my options and my future plans. Thank you, Solomon, for taking the time to explain everything so clearly and for being so helpful and reassuring. I really appreciate your support!
