Emergency First Aid for Mental Health Qualification title change

Here at Training Qualifications UK, we aim to keep you up to date with the latest news relating to our qualifications. Today, we would like to inform you of a title change regarding one of our qualifications and give a brief overview of our qualifications updates from last week. 

Firstly, the title of 'TQUK Level 2 Award in Emergency Response for Mental Health in the Workplace (RQF)' will be changed to 'TQUK Level 2 Award for Emergency First Aid for Mental Health (RQF)'.

We believe that the title change more accurately reflects the content of the qualification while also making it more consistent with other qualifications across the regulated landscape in this area.

The title change will go live from 1st September 2021.
