About Us

The Queensland Centre for Mental Health Learning (Learning Centre) is a Registered Training Organisation (RTO code: 40745) based within Queensland Health. As the leader in mental health training and workforce development in Queensland, we are proud to offer a suite of education programs to suit your workforce.

Through our training courses, we aim to initially provide practical foundational knowledge for staff who work with clients that experience mental health problems. In addition, we provide intermediate and advanced-level knowledge and specific skills that focus on consumer safety and mental health recovery plus clinical supervision skills.


Since our establishment in 2006, we have continued to expand our range of training modalities and content. We now provide a series of accessible face-to-face courses including a nationally accredited program, as well as a suite of eLearning courses, online resources and blended learning opportunities.

We can also help your organisation develop tailored training to suit the needs of your staff using a range of learning modalities that meets your scope, timeframe, and budget.


Our Services

The Learning Centre applies best practice in the development of training products, and we are able to provide you with the tools and resources needed to ensure a successful development and launch of any course we collaborate with you to create.

We offer a range of education solutions including face-to-face workshops, blended learning (eLearning + face-to-face workshop), eLearning, and digital media resources.

When designing training, we work closely with you to create content that is realistic, relatable, and designed to be directly transferable into real-world situations.

Our training development process has five key stages:

eLearning Essentials

Navigation

Navigation

In eLearning courses, effective navigation is essential in order for the learner to successfully absorb the information provided, without becoming overwhelmed. Effective navigation also allows the learner to move through the training with ease, as well as informing them of their progress. It is important that navigation be easy to use, functional, easy to read, consistent and provide a positive user experience.

Navigation

Content

Effective eLearning will create an engaging experience as well as impart knowledge on learners, so that they are motivated to learn. By creating flexible methods of delivering content, learners will be kept engaged whilst building their knowledge base.

Navigation

Scenario-based learning

According to adult learning principles, adults are relevancy-oriented (meaning they need to see a reason for learning something). Therefore learning activities need to have ‘real world’ application. Scenario-based learning uses interactive scenarios to support active learning strategies such as problem-based or case-based learning.

Navigation

Knowledge check

Assessments or knowledge checks are often built into our eLearning programs. These checks give learners an opportunity to gauge how well they're grasping material. By correctly answering questions, learners can be assured their new knowledge is accurate.

eLearning Customisation

When it comes to eLearning, we understand that each organisation has different needs. Each eLearning project is therefore unique, and our team can create eLearning courses with differing levels of interactivity and customisation. The complexity of interactions, production of videos and images and amount of content (which determines length of the program) will determine the cost and timeframe for product development.

Hosting

Our service does not end when your product has been created. We also offer technical assistance through hosting of eLearning products and on-going technical support to learners. We have several hosting options available to help you manage enrolments, reporting, and help the learners access the training course, including:

Hosting

Evaluation

Evaluation is an important part of the training development process and of the training product. It is beneficial to know what your learners have gained from their training experience and how they might approach their work differently. The systematic evaluation of a course provides an indication as to the efficacy of the training being delivered, as well as guiding the ongoing process of quality improvement for an organisation.

Evaluations can be individually tailored to a course and may be designed to measure knowledge, confidence, training satisfaction, attitudes, commitment to apply learnings in the workplace, and the application and sharing of knowledge in practice. The Learning Centre can provide comprehensive follow-up analysis, presentation, and reporting of evaluation data.
