Research and design of course materials for this Masters level course (SMHS), awarded by Leeds Beckett University, starting Sept 21. Responsible also for marketing and recruitment for the course.This course is for college and school staff who work on a daily basis with young people and children, supporting their mental health and wellbeing. Whilst short (e.g. two day) mental health first aid courses are helpful, this two year, online course equips existing school and college staff with the knowledge skills and experience to recognise the signs of poor or declining mental health, provide evidence based interventions and effectively interact with external agencies, employers, parents and other stakeholders. The course will equip the SMHS to support other staff in their school or college. The course involves visiting and learning from other organisations and conducting a work based project to self assess and evaluate existing provision and then implement an improvement plan, supported by supervision from experienced course tutors.
