Do you know how to safely respond when someone says they are struggling?

This course equips participants with skills to recognise and safely respond to mental health concerns. Participants will receive an accredited Certificate of Completion upon meeting requirements.

Business owners & employees.
Particularly anyone from the farming / agricultural communities.
Anyone looking for (free) accredited Professional Development.

Due to WorkSafes Psychological health regulations (commenced 1 Dec 2025), we see a particular value in encouraging any local businesses with employees or organisations/community groups to send along a participant to help their organisation align with the regulation requirements.

What is Mental Health First Aid?

Mental health first aid is the help you give to someone developing a mental health problem, experiencing a worsening of a mental health problem or in a mental health crisis.

This Mental Health First Aid International course will teach you the resources and competence to safely provide support.
