Ben LucasMental Health First Aid Facilitator

Interstate teams, remote sites and mine camps.

I've delivered Mental Health First Aid on BHP sites in South Australia's Copper Province, and I'm comfortable with site inductions, camp life and shift rosters.

Interstate and remote

Built for site

Mine site crews, contractors and camp teams have been some of my best groups. I tailor the examples to FIFO, shift work and remote life, and fit around your roster and training room bookings.

How travel works

The course fee is the same as in Sydney. Flights, accommodation and ground transport are charged at cost and quoted upfront, and you can run more than one group on the same trip to share the travel.
