Following the course materials provided by Mental Health First Aid® Australia, our blended courses use a mix of elearning and instructor-led video conferencing sessions. During the blended course you’ll have the freedom to complete the elearning portion of your training in your own time.

These interactive video sessions allow you to apply the things you’ve learned and practise your skills in approaching mental health conversations with other adults.
