It’s estimated that 44% of all Australians have experienced a mental health issue at some point in their lives.* That means there’s a good chance a friend, family member or coworker is dealing with a mental illness, and the right support can go a long way.
Managing mental health in the workplace can be a challenge. To help you navigate the issue, MiTraining offers Mental Health First Aid Courses across Sydney.
Developed by Mental First Aid Australia, this course provides the skills you need to approach mental health concerns in the workplace. Suitable for all managers, team leaders and professionals, our accredited courses deliver evidence-based mental health education. We equip students with the skills needed to support the people around them and lead a stronger, more supportive workplace.
