Online Combo! Mentor Training & Suicide Prevention Oct 7, 8 eves & 12 morning

Mentoring Men is a registered Australian charity providing free long-term one-to-one life mentoring programs for men Australia wide. We focus on a proactive approach, engaging Australian men who need helpful conversations and guidance to get on the right track before situations spiral into potential crisis. Our male-only mentors are caring volunteers who have decided to give some of their personal time to help another man in his life journey. 

Our definition of The Mentoring Men Mentor:

"A Mentor is someone who will listen, encourage, and support self-guidance and personal growth in another, whilst maintaining their own self-care”.  Can this be you?

Training outcome:

• Understand how the mentor role is to listen without judgement
• Learn the value of good questions and how to avoid ‘fixing’
• Experience mentorship from the perspective of both mentor and mentee
• Knowledge of the occurrence and demographics of suicide in Australia
• Differentiate between suicide risk factors and warning signs
• Learn the SALT method in suicide prevention to bring an at-risk person towards safety

About the training course:

The online group mentor training and suicide prevention training is the chance for new mentors to train together and learn from one another. There is some brief mandatory e-learning to complete beforehand.
