Brief intervention training

The free Healthy Lifestyles Brief Intervention Toolkit* provides a suite of eLearning modules that cover pregnancy and early life, and the general population. The training aims to reduce the prevalence of chronic disease and related harm by providing clinicians with the skills to conduct brief interventions as part of routine care.

The toolkit is suitable for all health and community workers, in all settings.

What does the training include?

The modules in the Healthy Lifestyles Brief Intervention Toolkit cover:

• introduction to brief intervention
• smoking
• alcohol and other drugs
• nutrition and physical activity
• oral health

The modules are designed to be completed separately. This allows you to choose modules that best meet the needs of clients you work with.

The Toolkit also provides access to the B.strong in Pregnancy and Early Life eLearning program. This program has been designed to deliver pregnancy and early life smoking cessation, nutrition, and physical activity interventions to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander clients.
