Education & Training

Training

Mind currently offers two training courses

Transition to Care Coordination : a 2 day training program

This 2-day training focuses on the role of the care coordinator and how it differs from and compliments that of similar roles such as a community mental health practitioner or a case manager. It will highlight the differentiating skills, knowledge and approaches needed to effectively navigate for better outcomes for clients.
