Youth Mental Health First Aid Instructor Training
Instructors are individuals certified to teach the course in their communities and beyond. They are the key to spreading Mental Health First Aid across the country. Instructors are on the frontlines of the program and train people in their communities in Mental Health First Aid.
There are no specific academic or professional credentials required for Instructor applicants. However, candidates should have knowledge of or experience with mental health problems (either personally, professionally, or both), prior experience in training adult learners, and a commitment and strategic plan to roll out Youth Mental Health First Aid in the community.
