Workplace wellbeing is everyone ’ s priority – not just HR ’ s .
Employee wellbeing training and consultancy company Key Wellbeing has launched a new accredited training course to help organisations bridge the employee-manager gap when it comes to wellbeing support at work .
Determined to create a tidal wave of wellbeing across workplaces in the North- East and beyond , the award-winning firm has created a CPD-accredited wellbeing champion online training course .
The all thriller , no filler course has been designed based on the hybrid working world of today . It ’ s available online via all devices and split into bite-size chunks of video , audio and interactive quizzes to maintain employee engagement .
Commercial director Marie Ranson said : “ We understand that time is precious and businesses don ’ t want their people taking valuable hours out of their day to complete ‘ yet another training course ’. “ That ’ s why we ’ ve created a fasttrack training option that ’ s simple , easily accessible , current and most importantly , fun !

Through the interactive sessions , Key Wellbeing say workers will gain the knowledge and tools needed to succeed in the objective wellbeing support role , including how to identify signs and symptoms of common mental health conditions among colleagues , how to handle difficult conversations and where to signpost to sources of professional support when needed .
Employees will also receive six months ’ worth of free resources to support their new role , including a wellbeing awareness day calendar , workshop planner , conversation starters and more .
Creative director Melissa Armstrong said : “ We ’ re seeing a huge disconnection between decision makers and those on the ground in many organisations .
“ Those at the top often don ’ t know how to support the wellbeing of their people and instead just guess , when really they could be communicating with those that have their ‘ ear to the ground ’ to identify the issues that really matter and find out what support would be most beneficial .
“ Through our wellbeing champion training course , we hope to help businesses open up those lines of communication and drive a lasting , cultural change in the workplace in 2023 and beyond .”
The wellbeing champion training course is available with a 50 per cent discount until January 31 2023 .
