Mental Health 3 July
The official materials for the course will be sent to you in an email and you can download them and print them out, or keep the curriculum in electronic format.
The very top folder in this course contains the pre-homework that we would like you to do before you enter into the 9-day module.
Please remember that we also offer supplementary courses to give added value to your experience and training.
The handouts provided in this learning management system are extra materials that you may want to use as a resource. We attempt to give you as much information as you might need in the future. It is fine if you wait to look at these materials until after the module when you need more inspiration and support.
