There is only one global Mental Health First Aid trademarked course (MHFA™) which Intellect is the sole licensed provider to deliver in Singapore. This may be referenced on MHFA-International's website.

Other courses do not have access to the globally recognised MHFA™ course curriculum which has been refined and updated over 23 years to six million trainees worldwide. This is not necessarily a reflection of other providers' course quality.

On a practical level, MHFA™ is heavily focused on not just awareness, but skills-based outcomes to help respond to and reassure an individual affected by mental health issues.

Finally, MHFA training is designed for non-mental health professionals and the MHFAider’s role stops once appropriate professional help is reached.

"MHFA provides crucial support for those with mental health challenges and equips managers to identify and assist their staff effectively."

- Edwin Chng, Medical Director at Parkway Shenton

"The instructor made the session more fun and interactive. We were able to enjoy the role-playing. He provided important feedback after each activity, reinforcing the knowledge we have imbibed."

- MHFA Trainee, Prime Energy

"The strength of the course is raising awareness of mental health issues and the difference a First Aider can make to the person in need. Great delivery; I learnt a lot from this session"
