About this course
The workshop will run 10am – 1:30pm with breaks.
Why take this course?
- This introductory course will help you to develop and practise new skills that will enable you to better support the young people you work with.
- The last few years have been especially hard for young people with the effects of the pandemic compounded by the cost-of-living crisis, all of which have had an impact on young people’s development.
- This course will help you better understand the mental health of the adolescents you work with and will give you the confidence to respond in a way that’s best for them.
Online workshops
- This online workshop is delivered via Zoom and is an interactive and collaborative experience. With two trainer consultants available in each workshop, we can effectively facilitate discussion and provide a safe learning space for you to feel empowered to make a difference for children and young people.
- The online environment allows for individual exploration of key dynamics encountered in the work with young people and the formulation of best practice within your role.
Learning outcomes
During the course we’ll:
- develop a shared understanding of mental health in the context of adolescence
- explore the developmental processes and changes in relationships that take place during adolescence
- identify ways of supporting young people to navigate the challenges they face
- consider how trusted adults can promote positive mental health and model ways to support wellbeing
After taking part in the course you can receive a digital certificate of attendance upon request.
