Early Support

Due to their close contact with children and young people, educators are in a powerful position to notice and support children and young people who might be showing signs of mental health issues.

Modules in this domain provide information and guidance on how to recognise behaviours which might indicate early signs of mental health issues, how to talk to children and young people about these issues, and how to provide appropriate and timely support.

Accreditation and endorsement 

Modules within this Be You domain meet the requirements for teacher-identified professional learning across all states and territories. Each module is aligned to the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers and contributes to one (1) hour of professional learning. At the completion of each module, a certificate will be awarded.

All registered teachers in every state and territory must ensure they have added their teacher registration number and state/territory to the My Profile page.
