Mental Health Awareness – Level 2 Certificate (RQF) Course

The Mental Health Awareness (RQF) - Level 2 Course is designed for a broad spectrum of health care workers who would benefit from a greater understanding of Mental Health Awareness issues.

The course leads to a RQF Level 2 qualification. This qualification has been developed due to the popular demand of our Mental Health Certificate award. This course allows you to gain a fully recognised qualification in this subject.
