For Training Providers

Engaging with consumer and carer representatives

Engaging both a consumer and carer representative in all stages of planning, developing, delivering and reviewing education is a key requirement of GPMHSC-accredited MHST and FPS ST activities.

All accredited training providers should read Consumer and carer engagement: A practical guide. This guide, published by the National Mental Health Commission, provides a clear framework and outlines best-practice principles for consumer and carer engagement and participation.
