Course Category Meeting emotional needs Description This workshop gives an opportunity to focus on the emotional needs of boys and how to meet these. We lift the lid on an emerging urgent inclusion issue,namely meeting the emotional needs of boys. Everyone knows a boy. They may be pupil, son, brother, parent or partner. Boys when they become adults are over represented in the prison, and mental health system. In one recent year 1300 young men committed suicide in the UK. In the UK the commonest cause of death among those aged 16-35 is suicide. Three men for every one woman kill themselves every year (Guardian, June 2006). 1 in 4 women experience domestic violence and 2 women a week are killed by a current or ex partner. Boys and men are a major concern. We need to find ways to allow them to unclench their hearts and learn to experience, process, communicate and manage their own emotional lives for their own and for the good of the wider community.

Description Infertility Awareness Diploma The Infertility Awareness Diploma course is a gem for those who work in private clinics and practices dealing with fertility treatments. It can also act as the first step for people who want to start a career in this industry. Some emotions, thoughts, and behaviours may negatively impact a person conceiving a baby, increasing depression and anxiety. Psychological and emotional factors can block conception. The key lies in the relationship between partners trying to conceive together. Suppose you harbour any feelings of resentment or anger towards your significant other. In that case, if you do not enjoy your sexual relationship and do not feel a real connection to your partner and are simply partaking in the activities without passion, it can become challenging to conceive together. In the United Kingdom, several clinics are licensed and provide services from investigations to treatments for individuals facing fertility problems. Every clinic must employ an independent infertility counsellor who is a part of the staff at the clinic. Some of these counsellors work outside the clinic's premises as well. Some advertise their services online, while others advertise through local media or the National Health Society job website. If becoming an infertility therapist or counsellor interests you, you should consider enrolling in the Infertility Awareness Diploma course. This is one sector where every kind of experience is a valuable addition. Every person is entitled to enjoy the highest level and standard attainable for physical and psychological health. Individual persons and couples have the right to decide their children's number, spacing, and timing. The problem of infertility is detrimental to realising such essential and fundamental human rights. Thus, addressing infertility is critical to reducing gender disparity. Both men and women can face infertility problems; however, women with male partners are more prone to suffering infertility, whether or not there is actual physical truth. Infertility can significantly impact people's social lives negatively- both the social lives of couples and, particularly, the woman's. Women too often experience divorce, violence, emotional stress, social stigma, anxiety, low self-confidence and esteem, and depression. The Infertility Awareness Diploma programme was designed to help students understand this problem. This condition has been plaguing societies down to its roots and causes and learned how to diagnose and treat it. There are some cases where the fear of infertility leads to men and women being sceptical about using contraception. Some often experience social pressure to prove to others at a young age that they are fertile. This is a result of the high value placed by society on childbearing. These cases show the need for awareness-raising and education on the determinants and prevalence of fertility and infertility. Interventions must be accessible, available, and of high quality to address these issues effectively, a challenge in many nations. The diagnosis and treatment of infertility are sometimes not a priority at the national level. It is also rare to find reproductive health and development strategies and policies that cover whole populations sourced financially by public health plans. There is also an inadequate number of trained people, and some lack the supporting infrastructure and equipment. Currently, medicines for treatment cost a fortune and stand as a significant hurdle even in countries actively fighting for the needs of individuals with fertility issues. The Infertility Awareness Diploma course will prepare you for this sector, whether you are new or working in it. The programme suits healthcare professionals looking for additional training regarding infertility and who want to provide better service to their clients. What you will learn 1: A brief introduction to infertility and the human anatomy 2: Pre-conception and adopting positive behaviours 3: Conceiving techniques and diseases that affect fertility 4: Seeing a doctor and taking supplements for infertility 5: Finding the problem 6: Early pregnancy loss 7: Intrauterine insemination and IVF 8: Embryo transfer and the IVF cycle 9: Challenges in using a third-party reproduction 10: New advances in fertility treatment Course Outcomes After completing the course, you will receive a diploma certificate and an academic transcript from Elearn college.
