PREVIEW Online Youth Mental Health Champion workbook

Introduction to the Online Youth Mental Health Champion course

Course overview Welcome to the Online Youth Mental Health Champion course, which has been adapted from our Youth MHFA One Day classroom course. By taking this course, you are joining a community of over half a million people in England and over three million people worldwide who are trained in Mental Health First Aid skills and can help others find the support they need. It is this community who will achieve our vision of a society where mental health is accepted as a normal part of life and where everyone has the skills to look after their own and other people’s wellbeing. The Online Youth Mental Health Champion course is interactive and is delivered through slides, video clips, activities, discussions, and case studies, which you will explore through individual learning activities and live sessions. Individual learning will be based on a combination of films, reading, and activities. These can be done at your own pace in advance of and following each live session on the MHFA England Online Learning Hub.

The live sessions are led by one of our approved MHFA England Instructor Members. You will be joined by up to 15 other participants who will be completing the course with you. Check the timings of each live session in your booking confirmation and make a note, as these sessions will not be recorded or repeated. Everyone who completes the course gets a certificate from MHFA England to say they are an MHFA Champion. If you require any clarification or support at any point, get in touch with your MHFA Instructor via the Online Learning Hub or using the contact details you were provided on registration.
