In Australia, the mental health crisis costs somewhere between $43 billion and $51 billion per year, while a further $130 billion is the cost of the loss in productivity due to the mental health issues.
Under Australian Work Health Safety laws, businesses must also eliminate or minimise psychosocial risks so far as is reasonably practicable according to the Australian Government's model code of practice for managing psychosocial hazards at work.
This is why we need to take a preventative approach to mental health. Rather than waiting until people need professional treatment, we can start supporting each other to connect and build mental wellness proactively.
As a certified Resilience First Aid Instructor, our founder Wendy Jenkins is qualified to train employees within your workplace to become certified Resilience First Aid Responders. This nationally-recognised training program is accredited under the Australian Government's Suicide Prevention Framework.
This is a new approach to put trained mental health champions in place who actively boost the resilience and mental health of their colleagues. It is an excellent complement to existing wellbeing programs with a focus on strength-based preventive mental health.
Getting certified in Resilience First Aid means that participants will learn about an existing set of science-based skills including:

As part of completing the certification participants will receive:
· 14 hours interactive training on preventative mental health skills

Option 1 - 14 hours blended training (2x2 hours in-person/webinar, 10 hours self-paced online)
Option 2 - 14 hours workshop format (usually 4 half days in-person/webinar)
What sets Resilience First Aid apart is the resources that participants take away. In addition to the 14 hour training course, they’ll also get the following resources to keep learning and building resilience:
In three years, responders have the opportunity to renew their certification through a one-day refresher course, where they'll learn more about the latest developments and scientific insight to keep their knowledge and skills updated.
