The brief
What is this course, and who is it for?
This is a showcase course by Apollo Accreditation, the UK and EU course development and accreditation consultancy, built for all staff, with a separate version for line managers. It shows how we design for wellbeing, and every activity below works in your browser.
The problem it solves
Wellbeing training can feel empty when workload is the real problem. This course acknowledges that and includes a version for managers.
It covers noticing early signs of pressure, making changes within a person's control, and when and where to ask for help, inside and outside the organisation. Check-in answers stay private and are not reported to the employer. The manager version follows the HSE Management Standards for work-related stress.
What learners can do afterwards
- Notice early signs of pressure building up
- Plan small, realistic changes
- Know what support the organisation offers, such as an employee assistance programme
- Start a conversation with their manager about workload

Questions
Common questions about this course
Can the employer see individual answers?
No. Check-in answers stay on the person's device. Only completion and anonymous feedback are reported.
How long would it take to build a course like this?
As a guide, an interactive module takes four to six weeks from when we receive your material, and a straight conversion two to three. This course has 3 modules, so we plan it in stages, and you review each script before we build it.
Will it work on our learning platform?
Yes, in most cases. We hand courses over as SCORM or xAPI packages, which nearly every learning platform accepts, and we test the finished package on your platform before you sign off. If you don't have a platform, it can run on ours.
