Comments from Employer / Organisation about the training completed with Optimum Skills:
It has been a pleasure to engage with Rachael Lawson and Optimum Skills to undertake the Level 2 Certificate in Understanding Mental Health First Aid. The training has been very informative, and I feel my knowledge and understanding of the subject has increased since completing the course. Rachael Lawson has also been massively helpful, patient and supportive throughout. I would highly recommend this course by Optimum Skills to anyone looking to better understand mental health in the workplace.
