Course completion
Certificate and learner materials
Certificate of attendance recognising you as an MHFA Champion. This one-day course does not award full Mental Health First Aider (MHFAider) certification or a regulated qualification.
MHFA England lists a manual, workbook and quick reference card for the MHFA action plan.
Training gives you tools for initial support, not a clinical qualification or a substitute for professional care. Managers also need clear boundaries and appropriate workplace support pathways.
