The National Youth Agency has developed a set of FREE online resources to help youth professionals work more effectively on health issues with young people. There are five e-learning modules to work through or dip into, it is up to you.

These are designed to offer an introduction to key health areas which learners can then build on through further research, training and learning. The e-learning covers:

  • Introduction: non-formal health education and youth work 
  • Healthy lifestyles 
  • Healthy relationships and sex
  • Mental and emotional wellbeing
  • Substance use

The benefits of Health-e learning

This is an opportunity to learn about key health issues that affect young people and reflect on your own current practice and what you could do with the new knowledge. Learners engage with e-learning as it offers:

  • On-demand availability train at a time to suit you, where ever you can access a PC, in or out of work hours. 
  • Self-pacing work at a pace that suits you, no sense of being too slow or too rushed.
  • Interactivity learning that accommodates auditory, visual and kinesthetic learners.
  • Confidence materials are accessible in the future for a refresher or quick reference to information.
