New Mental Health & Wellbeing course released on GROW
A new Mental Health & Wellbeing course has been launched this month on our Garden Retail Online Workshops (GROW) e-Learning platform (August 2024).
This is the 94th course to be added and it’s available to all our member garden centres and their teams, and to Horticultural Trades Association (HTA) garden centres too.
Response to requests
GROW’s Instructional Designer, Antony Snow, says: “Understanding more about mental health has never been so important, so I’m delighted to have launched this course on Mental Health & Wellbeing, which has been produced in response to several requests from our members.
“All of our members take the mental health of their employees extremely seriously and hopefully this course will complement the efforts that they have already made to help their staff to recognise the signs and symptoms, reduce the stigma associated with them, and improve overall wellbeing in their centres.”
Essential topics
GROW courses cover a wide range of essential topics to help employees gain confidence and knowledge about products and services, so they can effectively assist any customers and colleagues who need help.
Our CEO, Peter Burks says: “GROW is a cost-effective way of providing staff training and personal development. It’s accessible 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, making it convenient for staff to use when best for them. Our members say it’s an invaluable tool.”
