Resilience First aid Accreditation

 

Why Resilience First Aid Matters Now

Let’s start with the obvious. Life is a lot. Work is a lot. And people are feeling it.

Stress, burnout, uncertainty, and constant change aren’t going away. In fact, they’re dialled up higher than ever. Mental health concerns are now one of the biggest risks facing workplaces worldwide. And leaders everywhere are under pressure to “do something” about it.

But here’s the problem: most responses are reactive. Waiting until someone is already in crisis. Waiting until stress has tipped into burnout. Waiting until productivity has fallen off a cliff.

That’s too late.

Resilience First Aid flips the script. Instead of waiting for people to struggle, it gives you the skills to notice the early signs. To have the right conversations. To help people build strength before things break down.

It’s proactive. It’s preventative. It’s practical.

Think of it like teaching CPR. You don’t wait for someone’s heart to stop before you learn what to do. You learn it now, so you’re ready when it matters. RFA works the same way – only we’re dealing with resilience instead of chest compressions.

And no, there’s no mouth-to-mouth involved.

 

Why Resilience First Aid?

Resilience First Aid (RFA) is an accredited certification program. It trains you to become a Resilience First Aider: someone who can spot the signs of low resilience and step in early.

You’ll learn how to have conversations that actually help. You’ll learn the science of resilience. You’ll learn what to do, what to say, and what not to say. And you’ll walk away with practical tools you can use immediately, both for yourself and others.

RFA is like Mental Health First Aid’s proactive cousin. Instead of waiting until things get bad, you’ll be helping people strengthen their resilience from the start. It’s about protecting wellbeing before it unravels.

The program is evidence-based, accredited by professional bodies, and trusted around the world. It’s not fluffy. It’s not vague. It’s practical, science-backed, and designed for busy people who need to make a real difference.

And the best part? You don’t have to be a psychologist, counsellor, or wellbeing expert to make an impact. With RFA, you’ll have a clear, structured way to support others – and yourself – without overstepping or guessing.

The Science Behind RFA

People like to talk about resilience. But not many can explain it properly.

Resilience is not about being “tough.” It’s not about pretending you’re fine. It’s not about bouncing back instantly from setbacks like some kind of superhero.

Real resilience is a set of skills. Skills that can be learned, practised, and strengthened over time.

RFA is built on the Predictive 6 Factor Resilience Model (PR6). This model identifies the six key domains that make up resilience. They are:

  1. Vision – clarity of purpose and goals.

  2. Composure – managing stress and emotions.

  3. Reasoning – problem-solving and resourcefulness.

  4. Tenacity – persistence and optimism.

  5. Collaboration – social support and connection.

  6. Health – physical wellbeing as the foundation.

Together, these six factors give you a clear roadmap for building resilience in yourself and others.

And it’s not just theory. The PR6 model is backed by research and validated by data. It’s used by workplaces, clinicians, and coaches worldwide. It’s accredited by the Australian Counselling Association (ACA) and recognised by the International Coaching Federation (ICF) for continuing education.

That means when you complete RFA, you’re not just getting a certificate to hang on the wall. You’re gaining a qualification that’s recognised, respected, and backed by science.

Ideal Candidates

• Individuals who wants to be a positive influence in the lives of those around them

• Organisations looking to provide the best training to their people to build a culture of proactive care

• Occupational Health & Safety departments looking for better ways to reduce risk and promote a healthier workforce

• Managers looking to support staff mental health and create a culture of resilience

• Colleagues looking to make a positive impact in their teams

 

Why Prevention Works Better Than Cure

Here’s a simple truth. Prevention costs less than crisis.

Think about your workplace. What happens when someone burns out? Productivity drops. Sick days spike. Projects stall. Team morale takes a hit. Recruitment and training costs climb.

Now compare that with investing in prevention. Training people to notice stress early. Supporting colleagues before they hit breaking point. Building resilience into the culture of the team.

The difference is massive. Both in human terms and financial terms.

Every dollar invested in preventative mental health and resilience programs returns a healthy ROI. Some studies put the figure at over $4 for every $1 spent. That’s not just good for people. It’s good for business.

And there’s another benefit. When you train people in RFA, you’re not just helping individuals cope better. You’re changing the culture. You’re sending a clear signal: resilience and wellbeing matter here.

That shift alone can reduce risk, increase engagement, and make people actually want to stay. In a world where retention is one of the biggest challenges, that’s worth its weight in gold.

Training Outcomes: What Changes After RFA

Let’s get real. Training is only useful if something actually changes afterwards.

With RFA, the changes are obvious. They show up at three levels: personally, in teams, and across organisations.

Personal transformation

First, let’s talk about you.

After RFA, you’ll notice you’re better at managing your own stress. You’ll have practical tools to keep your head clear, your energy steady, and your resilience topped up. You’ll know exactly how to reset when life throws you a curveball.

You’ll also find conversations feel different. You won’t get stuck wondering, “What do I say?” or “What if I make it worse?” Instead, you’ll have the confidence and structure to step in and help.

That means no more awkward silences. No more avoiding people who look like they’re struggling. You’ll know how to connect, support, and strengthen – without overstepping.

And here’s the best part: you’ll feel stronger yourself. Every tool you learn for others applies to you too. It’s a double win.

Team transformation

Now imagine a team where several people are trained in RFA.

What happens? People start looking out for each other in a deeper way. Not just a quick, “How’s it going?” in the hallway. But meaningful check-ins. Real support. Early action.

This builds trust. It builds safety. It builds a culture where resilience is shared, not just an individual burden.

And the ripple effects are big. Stress spreads less. Energy lasts longer. Teams recover faster from setbacks. People feel supported, not isolated.

Suddenly, resilience isn’t a buzzword. It’s lived.

Organisational impact

Finally, the big picture.

Organisations with RFA-trained staff don’t just see happier people. They see fewer risks. Lower absenteeism. Stronger retention. More engagement.

And here’s something worth noting. Regulators are watching. Psychosocial hazards are now part of workplace health and safety standards. That means organisations can’t ignore this space anymore.

Having RFA-trained staff shows you’re serious about prevention. You’re not waiting for problems to explode. You’re investing in resilience upfront.

So whether you care about compliance, culture, or both – RFA ticks the box.

Who Should Do RFA?

Short answer: anyone who cares about people.

But let’s break it down.

Managers and leaders

If you manage people, RFA is a no-brainer.

You already carry the responsibility of supporting your team. But let’s be honest – most leaders don’t get trained in how to do that. You’re expected to figure it out as you go.

RFA gives you the structure, skills, and confidence to step into those moments. You’ll know how to check in without it being weird. You’ll know what to say when someone is struggling. And you’ll know how to keep yourself strong while doing it.

That makes you not just a manager, but a resilience role model.

HR, People & Culture, OH&S

If you work in HR or safety, RFA gives you tools you can use daily.

It helps you create policies that aren’t just paperwork. It helps you support staff in practical, human ways. And it strengthens your case when you talk to leaders about investing in wellbeing.

You won’t just be talking about programs. You’ll be able to point to accredited, science-based training that builds resilience across the organisation.

Team members

You don’t need a title to care about people.

RFA is for anyone who wants to support colleagues, friends, or family. Maybe you’ve noticed people struggling around you. Maybe you want to step up but you’re not sure how.

This training gives you the tools to do it. You’ll walk away with skills that apply in every setting – work, home, community.

Think of it like learning first aid. Anyone can. And the impact can be life-changing.

Schools and community groups

We also see RFA making a huge difference outside of work.

Teachers, coaches, community leaders, volunteers – all benefit from knowing how to build resilience in others. These are often the people on the frontlines of human stress. The ones who see problems first.

With RFA, they don’t just notice. They know what to do.

The Big Picture

So, who should do RFA?

Managers who want to lead well. HR teams who want real tools. Employees who want to support colleagues. Community leaders who want to protect wellbeing. Parents who want stronger kids.

In short – anyone who wants to build resilience in themselves and others.

And honestly, that’s everyone. Because who couldn’t use a bit more resilience these days?

 

Course Structure & Formats

By now you’re probably wondering: what does this training actually look like?

Good question. Let’s break it down.

Delivery options

RFA is designed to be flexible. We know people are busy. We know workplaces have different needs. That’s why you can choose from:

  • Face-to-face training – in-person workshops with a facilitator. Interactive, hands-on, and full of practice.

  • Blended delivery – part face-to-face, part online. This suits teams spread across locations, or anyone who likes a mix of structure and flexibility.

  • Corporate programs – we come to you. Tailored schedules, on-site delivery, group learning that fits around shifts and rosters.

No matter the format, the content is the same. You get the full accreditation, the same tools, and the same outcomes.

Time commitment

The course runs across two full days. That’s enough time to go deep, practise, and build confidence.

Yes, two days is a commitment. But remember – you’re gaining skills you’ll use for the rest of your life.

We’ve had participants say those two days were the most valuable training they’ve ever done. And honestly, that’s because it doesn’t feel like “just another course.” It feels personal.

Resources you get

This isn’t a sit-and-listen program. You walk away with a kit that sets you up for success:

  • Responder Kit – packed with practical guides, conversation tips, and quick-reference tools.

  • Driven App – digital tools and exercises to build and track your own resilience.

  • Personal PR6 Report – a deep dive into your resilience profile, with insights and strategies tailored to you.

These resources aren’t just nice add-ons. They’re what keep the training alive after the course ends. You’ll have ongoing tools to support yourself and others, every single day.

Certification and renewal

When you complete the course, you’re accredited as a Resilience First Aider.

The certification lasts for three years. After that, you can renew with a shorter refresher course to keep your skills sharp and up to date.

And yes – this is a recognised accreditation. You’ll get an official certificate you can proudly frame, show your manager, or use to claim CPD points if your profession requires them.

The Experience: What It’s Like to Take RFA

Now, let’s talk about the experience itself. Because we know what you’re thinking: two days of training – will it be boring?

Absolutely not.

RFA training is immersive, interactive, and human. You won’t be stuck in endless PowerPoint slides. You won’t be passively listening for hours. You’ll be engaging, practising, and applying what you learn from the very start.

A day in training

Here’s what it might look like:

  • Morning – You start by exploring what resilience actually means. Forget vague definitions. You’ll learn the six factors of resilience and how they show up in real life. You’ll also map your own resilience with a personal PR6 assessment. Spoiler: everyone has strengths and areas to grow.

  • Midday – You practise spotting the signs of low resilience. You work through real-world scenarios. You’ll have conversations that feel surprisingly real, but safe enough to test your skills.

  • Afternoon – You build resilience action plans. You’ll learn how to strengthen resilience step by step, and how to guide others to do the same. You’ll also dive into your own self-care system, because let’s be honest – supporting others only works if you’re steady yourself.

By the end of Day One, you’ll feel like you’ve already got new tools you can use immediately.

Day Two goes deeper. More practice, more role plays, more strategies. By the end, you’ll have the confidence and structure to step into resilience conversations anywhere.

What people say

Participants often say two things:

  1. “I wish I had this earlier.”

  2. “This is the first training that actually felt real.”

We hear that a lot. And it’s because RFA isn’t theoretical. It’s practical, grounded, and human.

People walk away feeling changed. More confident, more capable, more resilient themselves. And they’re eager to share that strength with others.

The facilitators

Another thing that makes the experience special is the people leading it.

Our facilitators aren’t just trainers. They’re experienced professionals who live and breathe resilience. They bring stories, humour, and warmth to the room. They make complex science feel simple. They create a safe space where people feel comfortable sharing, practising, and sometimes even laughing at themselves.

Because resilience isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being real.

After the course

Here’s the difference between RFA and most training: the learning doesn’t stop when the two days end.

You’ll have your Responder Kit, your Driven App, and your PR6 insights to keep using. You’ll also join a growing community of Resilience First Aiders – people who share the same mission of building stronger, healthier workplaces and communities.

And of course, you’ll carry the confidence that comes with knowing: if someone around you is struggling, you’ll know what to do.

Real-World Impact: Stories & Examples

Training is one thing. Real impact is another. So let’s look at how RFA plays out in the real world.

A workplace story

One manager we trained told us this:

“Before RFA, I used to notice when my team was stressed, but I didn’t know what to do about it. I’d either ignore it or just say, ‘Take a break.’ After the course, I had a proper framework. I checked in with one of my team who seemed off. We talked for twenty minutes. He later told me it was the most helpful conversation he’d had all year.”

That’s the difference. Instead of awkward well-meaning gestures, managers now have real skills.

A team story

In another organisation, they trained six staff across different departments. Within three months, resilience check-ins became part of the culture. People were more open about stress. Small problems were picked up early.

Turnover dropped. Sick days reduced. And the HR team said, “This is the first program where we can actually see a shift in culture.”

A community story

It’s not just workplaces. One teacher used RFA skills in her classroom. She spotted a student showing signs of low resilience. Instead of waiting until things escalated, she stepped in early. With small, consistent conversations, that student grew in confidence.

Her words? “I didn’t think I had the skills to do this before. Now I know exactly what to look for and how to respond.”

The ripple effect

These stories are common. Once people start applying RFA, the effects ripple outwards. One conversation at a time. One small shift at a time.

And soon enough, resilience becomes part of the DNA of the group. That’s when the real magic happens.

Answering your Questions

We promised you answers to the toughest questions. The ones people are too polite to ask out loud. Let’s tackle them head-on.

1. How is RFA different from therapy or counselling?

Simple. Therapy is treatment. RFA is prevention.

Therapists are trained professionals who diagnose and treat conditions. RFA First Aiders aren’t trying to do that. Instead, you learn to spot signs of low resilience, have supportive conversations, and guide people towards tools that strengthen them.

Think of it like the difference between a doctor and a first aider. One treats, the other supports and refers. RFA is the second.

2. Can I really make a difference without being a psychologist?

Yes. Absolutely.

You don’t need a degree to care about people. You just need the right skills. RFA gives you those skills. Structured, safe, practical.

It’s not about diagnosing or “fixing” people. It’s about noticing early, listening well, and guiding towards resilience-building strategies. That can make a massive difference.

3. What if I say the wrong thing?

Good news: the course covers this exact fear.

You’ll learn what to say, what not to say, and how to frame conversations so they help instead of harm. We role-play real situations so you feel prepared.

And honestly, the worst thing you can do is say nothing. Silence leaves people isolated. A caring, clumsy conversation is still better than no conversation at all.

But after RFA, your conversations won’t be clumsy. They’ll be confident.

4. Will this take too much time away from my actual job?

No. That’s the beauty of it.

Most resilience conversations take 10–20 minutes. Sometimes less. And they often save time in the long run because issues get addressed early, before they snowball into crises that take hours, days, or even months to fix.

So really, you’re saving time. And headaches.

5. How do I convince my manager or organisation to invest?

Speak their language.

Talk about risk management. Talk about compliance with psychosocial hazard regulations. Talk about retention, engagement, and ROI.

Remember: every $1 invested in prevention returns more than $4. That’s a number leaders understand.

And if they care about culture? Even better. RFA shows staff that wellbeing is taken seriously – not just as a poster on the wall, but in practice.

6. What if my workplace culture isn’t supportive?

That’s exactly when RFA makes the biggest difference.

You don’t need the whole organisation to shift overnight. One or two trained people can start a ripple effect. Culture is built on small daily actions. When people see those actions, they spread.

Every culture shift starts with a few champions. RFA helps you be one of them.

7. How do I keep my own resilience strong while supporting others?

We thought of that too.

Half the course is about your own resilience. You’ll learn self-care systems, anchoring techniques, and personal resilience plans. Supporting others is built on the foundation of supporting yourself.

It’s like the oxygen mask on a plane. You put yours on first. Then you help others.

8. What measurable ROI can we expect?

Great question.

Studies show resilience training reduces absenteeism, improves retention, and lifts productivity. Many organisations report a positive ROI within the first year.

But ROI isn’t just financial. It’s also cultural. Staff feel safer, more engaged, and more willing to contribute. And when people want to be at work, performance follows.

9. Is this just another compliance box-ticking exercise?

No. RFA goes far beyond compliance.

Yes, it ticks the compliance box. But more importantly, it builds a culture where resilience is lived, not just documented. That’s why organisations that take RFA seriously don’t just meet standards – they actually thrive.

10. Will people actually use these skills in real life?

Yes. Because the skills are practical, memorable, and immediately useful.

This isn’t the kind of training you forget the minute you leave. We give you simple tools, easy frameworks, and resources to keep them alive. Participants often tell us they use the skills within days – sometimes within hours.

And once you see the impact of your first conversation? You’ll want to keep using them.

The Bottom Line

RFA isn’t about ticking boxes or learning jargon. It’s about practical change. It’s about people having better conversations. It’s about stopping problems before they turn into crises.

And most of all, it’s about building workplaces and communities that feel strong, supportive, and human.

That’s the real-world impact.

Pricing & Packages

Pricing conversations with your manager can feel awkward. But here’s the thing: RFA isn’t a cost. It’s an investment. One that pays for itself quickly in reduced stress, stronger teams, and fewer problems down the line.

Individual enrolment

If you’re signing up on your own, you’ll pay for the two-day accreditation course. The fee covers everything – your facilitator-led training, your Responder Kit, your Driven App subscription, and your personalised PR6 report.

No hidden extras. No surprise “admin fees.” You pay once, and you get everything you need to walk out as an accredited Resilience First Aider.

Group & corporate packages

If you’re an organisation, you can book a group package.

This is where the value really multiplies. Training several staff at once creates an instant network of resilience champions inside your workplace. They support each other, and they spread the skills more widely.

Packages are flexible. You can run training on-site, off-site, or blended. You can choose to accredit an entire team, a leadership group, or key staff across departments.

We’ll also tailor the delivery to your needs. Shift workers? Multiple sites? No problem. We’ve worked with organisations across industries (from food manufacturing to financial services) and we know how to make it work.

Premium but practical

We’re upfront about this: RFA is a premium course. And that’s because it works.

You’re not just paying for a two-day workshop. You’re paying for years of research, accreditation from professional bodies, proven tools, and facilitators who know how to make the science practical.

That’s why our pricing is positioned where it is. Because we’ve created something that delivers real, lasting impact, and we refuse to cut corners.

Still, compared to the cost of turnover, burnout, or compliance breaches, RFA is a bargain.

Renewal pricing

Your accreditation lasts three years. When it’s time to refresh, you won’t be starting from scratch. You’ll do a shorter refresher course at a lower fee, keeping your skills sharp and your certificate current.

What to Expect in Your First Week After RFA

We often get asked, “What will it feel like after I’m accredited?”

Here’s the honest answer: different.

  • You’ll notice resilience factors in daily life – in meetings, in your family, even in yourself.

  • You’ll feel more confident checking in with people. The awkwardness fades.

  • You’ll have a clear toolkit to keep your own resilience strong.

  • And you’ll likely have your first “RFA moment” – a conversation where you realise, “Wow, I actually made a difference.”

Those first wins matter. They build your confidence. They show you the training works. And they set you up to keep applying it over the long term.

FAQs & Resources

We’ve covered a lot, but let’s hit the questions people still ask us most often.

Do I need any background in psychology to do RFA?

Not at all. This course is built for everyday people. Managers, staff, parents, teachers – anyone. You don’t need a psychology degree. You just need the willingness to learn.

How long is the training?

Two days. That’s it. Two days to become accredited, with skills you’ll use for a lifetime.

What if I can’t make the dates I booked?

Life happens. If you need to reschedule, we’ll move you to the next available course. No stress.

Do I get a certificate?

Yes. You’ll receive an official Resilience First Aid accreditation certificate. It lasts three years, and you can renew with a shorter refresher course.

Is this recognised for professional development?

Yes. The course is accredited by the Australian Counselling Association and recognised for CPD points by several professional bodies. If you’re a coach, HR professional, or counsellor, this counts.

What if my company doesn’t want to pay for it?

Many participants invest personally because they see the value. If your company won’t cover it, you still can. And it’s one of the most transferable qualifications you’ll ever take – useful in every part of life, not just work.

Do you provide resources after the course?

Yes. You’ll have your Responder Kit, the Driven App, and your personal PR6 report. These keep the learning alive long after the training ends.

Can you deliver RFA anywhere?

Yes. We deliver across Australia and New Zealand easily, and we’ve run programs internationally as well. Distance is no barrier.

Is this like Mental Health First Aid?

Similar idea, but different focus. MHFA is about crisis support. RFA is about prevention and building strength. They actually complement each other well. Many people do both.

What if participants are resistant?

Good news: RFA is practical and interactive. Even sceptical participants usually find themselves surprised at how relevant and useful it feels. And if someone stays grumpy the whole time? Well, at least you’ll have more resilience to deal with them.
