CPD-accredited workplace mental health training for employers to offer 

Employers have a duty of care for their people's minds as well as their people’s bodies. Access eLearning's mental health and wellbeing courses are built for employers, HR teams and learning and development managers who need to meet that duty for teams of any size. Your people learn to recognise, manage and talk about mental health challenges, and every course completion is dated on record. 

  • Three bundles with CPD accreditation 
  • Bonus construction-specific edition 
  • Over 50 titles covering mental health and personal wellbeing 

Why workplace mental health training matters for employers 

Wellbeing across the UK is declining, and the pressure hits frontline managers hardest, according to Great Place To Work's report on wellbeing in the UK. 

The figures below come from IGPP, Deloitte and HSE.

Mental health training for employees, whatever the job 

The manager under pressure to hit targets, the team member back from bereavement leave, the frontline worker nobody has asked how they are doing. Each person gets the know-how to recognise what they're going through and take the right next step, with a dated CPD record to show it happened. 

Prevent burnout with corporate mental health training 

Employers have a duty of care that stretches to psychological wellbeing. Ask an HR director where poor mental health shows up, and you'll hear about sick days, people running on empty at their desks, and the resignations that follow. Training with a CPD record gives you the structure and the audit trail to tackle all three. 

Employee wellbeing training people will finish 

Wellbeing training for employees only works if people complete it. Training nobody finishes teaches nobody anything. Each title is built around one focused session, short enough to finish in one sitting and specific enough to stay with the learner. Real scenarios replace passive reading, so the knowledge is there when someone needs it, long after the session ends. 

Mental health eLearning for the tricky topics 

From understanding suicidal thoughts and feelings to men's mental health, menopause, addiction and grief, these mental health training courses cover the subjects that often get left off the training plan because they feel too difficult to raise. The whole team gets the same grounding in the topics that matter most, and managers learn how to handle those conversations well. 

Updated as understanding develops 

Mental health guidance changes, and best practice moves on with it. Access eLearning updates the relevant title, so your people keep learning from current thinking. Mental health should be treated as an ongoing priority, not a one-off training event. 

Audit-ready records, whatever your system 

Courses are SCORM-compatible, so they work with any learning management system your organisation already uses. For organisations using Access Learning's mental health training software, training can be assigned by role, tracked in real time and reported on for everyone it reaches. HR and learning teams get one view of who has completed what, and when. 

What's included in each mental health and wellbeing bundle? 

Three bundles, each with CPD accreditation. Includes a bundle built for the specific pressures of the construction sector, where suicide rates among male workers are three times the national average.

Useful info

What is workplace mental health training?

Workplace mental health training gives employees and managers the knowledge to recognise, understand and respond to mental health challenges at work. Access eLearning's mental health awareness eLearning covers everything from stress and anxiety to grief, addiction and suicide awareness. It's built for organisations that need consistent, trackable training for every team. 

What should employers do about mental health at work?

Employers need to protect the psychological as well as the physical wellbeing of their workforce. That means assessing and managing risks to mental health alongside physical hazards. Good practice covers awareness, early intervention and a supportive environment, and mental health at work compliance training is one practical way to build all three. 

How does online mental health training support employers?

Access eLearning's mental health in the workplace training is self-paced, works on mobile and can be assigned by role. Learners can finish it in short sittings, and every completion is recorded. That gives HR and training teams a verifiable audit trail.
