The Standard MHFA course takes place over 2 full days. However there may be some flexibility for some tailored workplace courses, to be delivered over a number of sessions.

The sessions use a mix of group work, video content; and PowerPoint and group discussion to support the participants learning. 

Courses are limited to 20 persons in order to maintain an optimal learning environment.

You'll receive a MHFA Standard manual that you can take away with you at the end of the course and also an attendance certificate from MHFA Ireland to say you are now Mental Health First Aider. Only official Mental Health First Aid Ireland courses can provide these.
