Its been a bit of a mission over the past few months, the paperwork has been immense but rightly so! But after a lot of form filling, we are delighted to say we have been awarded CPD accreditation by the CPD Standards Office for four of our bespoke Mental Health courses.
But what does this actually mean? We have provided information about the content of the courses to be analysed to ensure it meets the exacting standards. Many of our mental health trainers have been assessed to make sure they have the relevant training to deliver these courses and we have given information about how the content can be put into practice and followed up on.
This is so exciting for us! We have the chance to support so many more people with this accreditation and reach a wider market.
But what does bespoke mean in terms of our courses? These particular workshops and courses have been written by our CEO Danielle and cover a variety of areas – the details of the courses are below:
- Mental Health During Covid-19 workshop
