I-Act Managing and Promoting Positive Mental Health and Wellbeing

New

The I-Act course for managers is aimed at supporting managers to improve workplace wellbeing and helping them to support employees who may experience a mental health or wellbeing issue. The training maintains a focus on common mental health issues, such as anxiety and depression, and addresses how we might improve wellbeing in order to build resilience.

The course gives practical guidance and tools for how we might improve our own mental health and wellbeing and support others who may have a mental health or wellbeing issue. It informs participants as to what they need to know and offers tools for addressing and improving mental health and wellbeing in the workplace.

This training highlights what managers need to know about managing mental health in the workplace (for example, regarding legislation and The Health and Safety Executive).

The course comes with free access to on-line i-act resources. You will receive an email from i-Act to complete your registration for the course after registering here.

The i-Act course is accredited by The Royal College of Psychiatrists.
