The Working Minds

The Working Minds training aims at reducing the stigmatization surrounding mental health in the workplace. Knowing that one in five people will suffer from mental health problems at some point, it is inevitable that this will have work-related implications as well as huge cost impacts. However, it can be difficult or awkward to have a discussion with a colleague or an employee when the subject needs to be addressed. This training offers you tools and strategies to promote healthy mental health practices with the employees you work with as well as with yourself. This training is offered in person or virtually with a group of employees (3.5 hours training) or with an approach specific to members of management (8 hours training).
