Caring for people with mental health issues can be challenging and rewarding, but with a range of awards and certificates available for work-based learners it can be a confusing area. That's why we've put together a one-stop handbook to support your training and continuing professional development in mental health care.

This book covers NCFE Level 1 Award in Mental Health Awareness, NCFE Level 2 Award in Understanding Working with People with Mental Health Issues and City & Guilds Level 3 Diploma in Mental Health Care.
It's also useful for candidates taking any of the Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 awards, certificates and diplomas in mental health care or for brushing up skills and knowledge from previous qualifications.
