Can
you
believe
it?
We're
on
the
verge
of
the
halfway
mark
for
2024!
Time
seems
to
be
flying
by
faster
than
ever,
but
as
we
reflect
on
how
much
ground
has
been
covered,
it
is
no
surprise
that
Semester
1 is
almost
over.
In
this
edition
of
our
newsletter,
we'll
take
a
moment
to
share
with
you
our
recent
achievements,
highlighting
the
wonderful
gains
that
have
been
made
for
our
education
portfolio,
and
provide
a
glimpse
into
what
lies
ahead.
The
semester
2
training
schedule
has
been
released,
and
as
always
includes
a
dynamic
mix
of
HHS
based,
face-to-face
training
events,
and
online
classroom
workshops
open
for
statewide
participation.
We
look
forward
to
bringing
you
so
much
more
this
year.

On-demand
suicide
prevention
instructional
video
suite
As
beneficial
as
training
is
in
upskilling
our
workforce
on
suicide
prevention,
the
reality
is
that
many
people
are
still
at
the
frontline
whilst
they
are
waiting
to
attend
a
workshop or
they
have
completed
the
training
but
would
like
to
quickly
revisit
a
key
approach
or
technique
they
have
learnt.
To
address
this
need
in
the
workforce,
the
Learning
Centre
is
developing
an
on-demand
instructional
video
suite
as
part
of
our
soon-to-be-released
new
Suicide
Prevention
training
package.
This
suite
will
include
five
short
videos
that
take
people
through:
- Integrated
Motivational
Volitional
(IMV)
model
of
suicide
- Chronological
Assessment
of
Suicide
Events
(CASE)
approach
- Prevention
Oriented
Risk
Formulation
(PORF)
- Safety
Planning
- Lethal
Means
Counselling
Each
of
the
videos
will
teach
learners
an
overview
of
the
models
using
a
scenario
of a
young
person,
‘Charlie’,
to
help
contextualise
the
learning.
So
whether
you
are
new
to
working
with
people
in
suicidal
distress
or
you
feel
like
you
need
a
refresher,
our
new
instructional
video
suite
will
be a
perfect
way
to
access
bite-sized
learning
as
you
need...
because suicide
prevention
is
everybody’s
business.
Stay
tuned
for
the
release
of
the
full
suite
of
videos,
and
more
news
about
the
new
Suicide
Prevention
training,
with
updates
due
in
August.
If
this
has
piqued
your
interest,
keep
your
eyes
open
for
annnouncements
regarding
the
course
with
code
QC18!
In
the
meantime

this
sneak
preview

Strengths
training
eLearning
update
The
Team
continue
to
work
their
way
through
many
routine
course
updates.
One
of
the
most
recent
developments
has
been
with
the
workshop
QC24
Working
with
Strengths
in
Recovery which
has
been
listed
as
'unavailable'
for
some
time.
A
review
of
this
course
was
planned
in
two
phases,
the
first
stage
of
which
is
now
complete. Previously
a
blended
course;
the
pre-enrolment
eLearning
module
attached
to
this
course
has
been
updated
into
contemporary
software
and
made
available
as a
stand
alone
training
resource.
Now
released
as
an
accessible
foundational,
eLearning
course,
visit
the
module
via:
This
eLearning
will
remain
as
an
important
pre-requisite
to
the
workshop
which
continues
to
undergo
review
and
will
be
re-released
at a
later
stage.
In
the
meantime,
if
you
want
to
learn
more
or
refresh
on
strengths-oriented
practice
and
recovery-oriented
values
look
no
further
than
this
eLearning.
By
developing
collaborative,
holistic
care
plans,
you
can
provide
hope,
resilience
and
empowerment
to
an
individual's
future.

Supporting
effective
responses
to
people
experiencing
suicidality
The
Learning
Centre
is
pleased
to
be
undertaking
a
review
of
workforce
capability
programs,
which
aim
to
support
the
Queensland
Health
mental
health,
alcohol
and
other
drug
(MHAOD)
workforce
to
respond
effectively
to
people
at
risk
of
suicide.
Funded
by
the
MHAOD
Branch,
with
governance
from
the
Suicide
in
Healthcare
Services
team
and
consultation
with
Insight,
the
project
will
undertake
a
gap
analysis
of
training
and
education
to
support
the
delivery
of
care
by
MHAOD
workers
consistent
with
the
Queensland
Suicide
Prevention
Practice
Guideline.
The
focus
will
be
on
identifying
appropriate,
evidence-based
treatment
and
care
for
people
at
risk
of
suicide,
including
those
with
co-occurring
mental
health
and
substance
use
disorders.
The
project
will
run
till
June
30
2024,
with
an
expected
outcome
of
recommendations
for
evidence-based
approaches
for
the
development
and
delivery
of
workforce
capability
programs
to
better
support
people
at
risk
of
suicide.

A
new
LMS
is
coming
When
our
current
LMS
was
launched
in
July
2017
we
were
thrilled
by
the
enhancements
it
provided
and
the
major
achievement
it
represented
for
our
team
at
the
time. However,
as
is
the
way
of
technology,
it
has
a
shelf
life
and
in
recent
times
we
have
become
acutely
aware
of
an
approaching
expiry
date
on
the
software
used
in
that
build.
To
carry
us
into
the
future
the
Learning
Centre
is
partnering
with
Insight
on
the
development
of a
custom
built
LMS
with
its
debut
planned
for
2025.
While
migration
of
full
learner
history
is
in
planning,
we
cannot
account
for
every
possible
scenario
and
therefore
recommend
that
all
learners
access,
download
and
save
their
learner
records.
We
recommend
that
you
visit www.qcmhl.qld.edu.au,
login
then:
- view
your My
profile
tab
and
ensure
ALL
your
details,
including
mobile
phone
number, work
location
and line
manager
details
are
up
to
date.
- next
go
to
the
My
courses,
My
bookings
tab
to
view
your
list
of
completed
courses.
- important:
Export
your
record
of
learning
(Excel
download
accessible
at
the
bottom
of
the
screen).
- If
you
know
you
will
require
Certificates
to
support
your
CPD,
download
and
each
Certificate
you
have
earned
(by
course
page)
and
save
locally
on
your
personal
device/drive
for
ease
of
access.
We
will
provide
more
updates
as
this
development
unfolds.
