Course overview
Our CPD accredited, Wellbeing Champion course is perfect for leaders, HR, Managers, Wellbeing Leads or someone in a position to inspire change for staff wellbeing. The course encourages schools to take a proactive approach to staff wellbeing, with the focus on embedding wellbeing into the school culture, rather than it being a nice ‘extra’.
Training is provided by our expert Wellbeing Facilitators who have many years experience in the education sector. The 2-day training programme will ensure that participants leave well-resourced and confident to champion wellbeing amongst staff.
Good workplace wellbeing is beneficial not only to your staff's overall health but also benefits engagement and increased productivity at work. Good staff wellbeing can also benefit children and young people in your school or college, in terms of their own wellbeing and academic performance. Our 2-day interactive Wellbeing Champion training course encourages schools to take a proactive approach to staff wellbeing, a vitamin rather than a pain-killer approach, with the focus on embedding wellbeing into the school culture, rather than being an added 'extra'.
The cost of the Wellbeing Champion course is £800+VAT which includes food and refreshments throughout the day as well as access to the resources and materials to use in your schools. Spaces are limited to allow for in depth discussions and tailored advice.

Testimonials
"The Wellbeing Champion course was relaxed and I felt confident in talking openly about the issues the education sector are facing. The Still Human team were amazing and inspirational, I came away from the course excited about what I would be able to do to once I was back at school! The team knew the challenges that are being faced by those in education and you could relate to everything that was being shared. They were approachable, informative and have all lived and breathed education, they were realistic about the changes education is going through but were so in touch with the issues being faced in the sector now. They provided advice on how to get the best out of people, it doesn’t have to be rigid – it really is the small things that have the biggest impact on people."
Michele Osborne - Director of Safeguarding, Framwellgate School Durham
“The Wellbeing Champion course gave me more focus to create a positive culture within the school. The tools I was taught have allowed me to explore my own mindfulness and this has helped deepen my understanding to pass on to others. I made some really positive connections on the course as well; it was great to meet the team and those attending had similar passions when it came to improving the wellbeing of others in their schools. Everyone sharing their own experiences allowed several points of views to be explored and it was great to hear what is going elsewhere, everyone seemed to be having similar issues, so it was good to get together and work out how to implement the best plan for creating that culture change."
Louise Shields - School Business Manager, Beacon of Light School Sunderland
"Since attending the course, we now have a number of staff who have volunteered to be advocates of wellbeing in the college. Their role is to support managers in driving their department’s wellbeing action plans forward and assist in the initiatives we are running college wide. We run regular staff wellbeing sessions using the resources provided on the course and staff have engaged with these really well. I would just like to say a huge thank you as it was your sessions that inspired me to drive our strategy forward!"
Vicky Johnston - Curriculum Team Manager, Carlisle College
"Still Human ran an in-house Wellbeing Champion workshop for our Health & Wellbeing team. The workshop was excellent and equipped our health advocates with additional tools and knowledge to help them confidently build and roll out the plans to embed wellbeing into our culture. The workshop also instilled a renewed enthusiasm and confidence into the team to take ownership of the programme and keep the momentum going, which will only help us raise the importance of health and wellbeing within our company. I would highly recommend this workshop."
Nicola Duffey, Senior HR Manager
“The course has hands down been the best two days I’ve experienced. I usually leave training with lots of ideas but not sure where to start but after completing the Wellbeing Champion course, I honestly feel like I have got this!”
