Every year one in five Australians experience a diagnosable mental illness.

* Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
* Psychosis
* Substance use
* Suicidal thoughts
This course is designed for all members of the public aged 18 years and above. It is also suitable for health professionals, front-line staff, human resources staff, team leaders and managers.
*Please note; Short Courses are non-accredited and result in a Certificate of Participation. A non-accredited training course does not count-towards a recognised qualification, but is specially designed to provide hands-on training in a new skill you can use in your personal or professional life, and is a great way to refresh your knowledge or give you a taste of a different industry.
