Mentor Course Information

We are now taking applications for our next Mentor Training Course starting in October 2011.

Our very exciting news is that our courses are now accredited through Bath Spa University's Professional Masters Programme Mentoring and Coaching Award, for either postgraduate or undergraduate level credits. Alternatively, the modules can be taken purely as a Health Creation Training without academic study.

The Mentor Training is now Module 1 of five Modules. For a training overview booklet please ring the Health Creation Helpline on 01225-745757 or click here.

Module 1 - Health Creation Mentor Training

Our Mentors are trained to coach people through our three core programmes:

• The Health Creation Programme
• The Cancer Lifeline Kit
• The Carer's Guide

The aim is to promote healing and positive change in health-defining behaviour both for individuals and in the workplace. The course has proven to be both a rich personal journey and a great professional opportunity for those seeking to make really positive personal change.

Our Mentors come from many different backgrounds united by an interest in and understanding of the effectiveness and importance of the holistic approach to wellness. Many work with individuals and others are connected to particular communites such as schools, hospitals and professional environments in which they are committed to offer support and promote behavioural change for the better.
