The MHFA Engaging Leaders course is a 90-minute session that provides information to senior leaders, decision-makers and influencers about how Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) can support and be used as part of a broader strategy to create mentally healthy workplaces.

This course contains information about how leaders can support their employees who may be experiencing a mental health problem. Information in this course is based on guidelines developed through the expert consensus of people with lived experience of mental health problems and professionals in workplace wellbeing

Evaluations consistently show that MHFA training is associated with improved knowledge of mental illnesses, their treatments and appropriate first aid strategies, and confidence in providing first aid to individuals with mental illness. It is also associated with decreased stigma and an increase in help provided.
