Prevention training

The Mental Health Commission’s Prevention Branch provides a range of professional development opportunities to support services in the delivery of alcohol, other drug (AOD) and prevention initiatives.

These training, resources, and professional development opportunities are targeted specifically for staff who have AOD prevention as part of their role. This includes Community Alcohol and Drug Service staff, Health Promotion Officers, Police, relevant Non-Government Organisations, School Drug Education and Road Aware (SDERA) staff and Local Drug Action Group members.

In addition, the Commission's prevention staff can tailor AOD prevention training specifically for organisations who are directly engaged in the development and delivery of AOD management plans. Training can be delivered through face-to-face workshops and videoconferencing.
