About your Course

Supporting individuals with mental health issues requires specialist knowledge to do so effectively. It takes an understanding of the kind of challenges individuals can face, the contributing factors and knowledge of the actions you can take.

Studying a level 2 certificate in mental health first aid and mental health advocacy in the workplace gives you those essential skills. It will help you to support those with mental health issues effectively using a person-centred approach to ensure their identified needs are being met.

This course is ideal for anyone wanting to support or advocate for individuals with mental health issues either in their place of work or as part of their role.
