Free wellbeing support for Careerforce learners

Do you have a Careerforce learner who is going through a tough time and may need wellbeing support?

Are you a Careerforce enrolled learner wanting wellbeing support?

We’re committed to promoting a healthy learning environment where Careerforce enrolled learners can talk to someone confidentially about their wellbeing when they need to.

We know that many factors may impact on a person’s wellbeing including:

• Physical health concerns
• Mental health concerns and stress
• Financial concerns and hardship
• Whānau and relationship issues
• Bullying, harassment and discrimination

Recent research conducted across work-based learning in Aotearoa revealed that 30% of participants reported experiencing mental health issues (S. Bartlett, 2023).

Careerforce is extending support to those enrolled in a Careerforce programme* through a wellbeing support service. Our Wellbeing Advisors are available to provide holistic support to individuals on their learning journey.

Our objective is to foster a positive and supportive learning environment where all Careerforce programme participants feel comfortable seeking confidential support for their wellbeing.

Support is available via phone, text, email, Microsoft Teams, or in-person depending on location.
