I thoroughly enjoyed doing the NCFE CACHE Level 2 Mental Health First Aid and Workplace Advocacy course. Support materials arrived quickly, and the Learning Curve tutors were friendly, approachable and provided timely and supportive feedback. Would definitely recommend.

Very useful and informative course as a base to start understanding mental health in children and young adults. I was guided through and positively encouraged by my assigned tutor Paul Webster who couldn't have been more helpful. Highly recommended to anyone who wishes to understand more in this field.

I started my first ever course online which is Level 3 Understanding Mental Health and I am really enjoying it so far. There is a lot to it but I am determined to get through it all especially as I have a tutor to help and guide me through each and every unit I complete. The feedback is very polite and really makes you feel proud of what you have achieved so far. It's very encouraging and makes you want to learn more and you feel more motivated too. I recommend this for your learning too!!
