Course Overview

Refresh Your Skills to Continue Supporting Mental Health in the Workplace

Mental Health First Aiders play an important role in creating a supportive and positive workplace. To maintain their knowledge and confidence, qualified Mental Health First Aiders are required to refresh their understanding of common mental health issues every three years by completing a requalification course.

The Level 3 Award in Mental Health First Aid in the Workplace (RQF) Requalification is a regulated and nationally recognised qualification designed for those who have previously completed the full Mental Health First Aid in the Workplace qualification and wish to renew their certification.

This course updates learners on current best practice, reinforces essential skills and develops confidence in recognising the signs of poor mental health, providing initial support and signposting colleagues to appropriate professional help.

It is ideal for Mental Health First Aiders, Mental Health Champions, HR professionals, managers, supervisors and team leaders who are committed to promoting positive mental wellbeing within their organisation.
