Refresher Youth Mental Health First Aid
What you will learn
Refresher courses are 4 hour face-to-face courses that allow people who have previously completed a 12 or 14 hour Mental Health First Aid course to refresh their knowledge and skills. For people who are Accredited MHFAiders, the refresher courses offer an opportunity to extend their accreditation for a further 3 years.
The content of each refresher course is based on guidelines developed through the expert consensus of people with lived experience of mental health problems and professionals.
There are three different Refresher courses available. MHFAiders should do the same type of refresher course as their original 12-14 hour MHFA course to renew their accreditation.
