This presentation of Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) for Youth is delivered in a hybrid format. There will be approximately 2 hours of independent work to be completed at your own pace prior to the in-person training day, and approximately 30 minutes of independent work to be completed after. All independent work in the portal MUST be completed in order to receive a certificate for this training.

Upon registration for the course here, the email provided will be entered in the MHFA portal, and an invitation to create an account will be sent to that email address. This will include a link and a unique code that will allow you to access and enroll in this course within the MHFA portal. After following this link and setting up your account, you will be able to complete the pre-requisite 2 hours of independent instruction prior to the in-person training on November 17th. Upon completion of the in-person training, you will need to complete about 30 minutes of independent post-work in this account, and then your certificate will be automatically generated and available in the Mental Health First Aid portal until expiration.

There are TWO registrations required to be enrolled in this course. This one and a subsequent registration in the MHFA portal for access to the independent course work required in preparation for this training. If you have any questions or concerns please call Berkshire AHEC at 413-842-5160 during normal business hours (8am-4pm) or email [email protected] for support. We will also be on-site the day of the training an hour before the start to provide portal support if needed.
