CPD Understanding Anxiety
Course Overview
Research shows that the number of people experiencing and suffering with anxiety is on the rise, especially since the Covid-19 pandemic, so it is more important than ever that people know how to manage and minimise it. Whether the anxiety is caused by work or exam pressures, financial problems, health issues or something else, everyone can experience anxiety.
Our online CPD anxiety course is perfect for individuals wanting to upskill for personal or professional reasons, or employers looking for an anxiety training course for their staff. It will give you the knowledge needed to understand the causes and effects of anxiety, how to support people who suffer from anxiety, and how to manage anxiety.
Cambridge Regional College takes the safeguarding of individuals emotional and physical wellbeing exceptionally seriously. Some courses and subjects covered in programmes can be upsetting for learners and, although CRC has made every effort to include trigger warnings where appropriate, it is important to acknowledge that we cannot know or understand potential triggers for all learners. Our courses are designed to provide training and further knowledge and should not be undertaken as a form of non clinical therapeutic intervention or counselling.
