All mental health training courses follow a similar format and structure, and it is worth reading on to find out what to expect before booking your place.
How the Day Is Structured
A Mental Health Training Course typically lasts a full day or half day. It starts with a welcoming introduction and setting of ground rules for the day. The trainer sets a calm and relaxed tone at the start of the course and attempts to keep it that way for topics that may be more challenging for delegates.
Activities Trainers Use
A variety of activities are used including group discussion, scenario cards and short role-plays to practice out a skill that can be used in real life situations in your work with service users and their families.
What You Leave With
On completion of a course, delegates are left equipped with a number of practical tools, for example a framework for a conversation and a list of local and national support signposts. Often delegates also receive a certificate confirming attendance at the training course, which can be used for recording of Continuing Professional Development (CPD).
Local Versus Online Courses
Local training sessions in Swansea enable delegates to have real-time discussions regarding how best to implement newly learned skills in their own workplace. For Mental Health Training Courses Swansea, see //www.tidaltraining.co.uk/mental-health-training-courses/swansea.
How Learning Is Confirmed
These types of courses will focus on simple reflective exercises or informal questions to check for understanding. The trainer does not want to test the delegate’s knowledge by trying to catch them out in an exam-like scenario.
Knowing what to expect to learn on a mental health training course will help you to get the most out of the course and walk through the door on the day ready to engage with the rest of the course.
