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.

Learn Direct are very supportive.

I got in touch with Learn Direct because I have decided to change my career. Having spent 43 years in the care industry working with babies right through to palliative care for the elderly in various settings. I spoke to a lovely lady called Yulia who answered my many questions and made me feel at ease. She was not pushy to get me signed up (unlike some others). Yulia also listened to what I had to say regarding my reasoning behind a career change. Not judgemental at all. I was in control of my decisions.
