Become a Certified Mental Health First Aider: Virtual Training on July 24th & 25th

Join us for an engaging and impactful virtual Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) Certification Course, designed to equip you with essential skills to assist individuals experiencing a mental health crisis or decline in well-being. This interactive training will take place virtually, from 8:30AM to 12:00PM, on July 24th & 25th, providing you with hands-on techniques to recognize, support, and guide individuals toward recovery.
Throughout the course, participants will learn how to:
- Recognize early signs of mental health declines or crises
- Encourage open discussions about mental health and well-being
- Guide individuals to appropriate professional or community supports
- Offer support in mental health or substance use crises
- Use MHFA actions to maintain your own mental health
Upon successful completion, participants will receive a Mental Health First Aid certificate from the Mental Health Commission of Canada (MHCC).
Before attending the virtual training, participants must complete a self-directed online module (Module 1), which introduces key concepts and strategies to be explored in the live training (Modules 2 and 3). The online module takes approximately 2 hours to complete, and proof of completion is required prior to the start of the virtual modules. Completion of Module 1 is mandatory to participate in the virtual course. Failure to complete the online module by the specified deadline will make the participant ineligible for a refund or transfer of registration.
Important Note: A minimum of 8 participants is required by the Mental Health Commission of Canada (MHCC) for the training to proceed. If fewer than 8 participants are confirmed 48 hours prior to the session, the course will be rescheduled in accordance with MHCC’s group size policy.
