MENTAL HEALTH, DRUG TESTING AND ADDICTION COUNSELLING (MENDAC) CERTIFICATION PROGRAMME.

MENDAC, accredited and certified by Skill Development Council Canada 🇨🇦 was created because mental health and substance use challenges are no longer issues for specialists alone. They now affect workplaces, schools, healthcare facilities, religious institutions, families, and entire communities. The people who often notice the warning signs first are not psychiatrists. They are teachers. Managers. Healthcare workers. Parents. Counsellors. Faith leaders. Community leaders.

You Are Closer to Someone Struggling Than You Think A teacher. A parent. A colleague. A congregant. A friend. A patient. A student. Every day, millions of people struggle with mental health challenges and substance use disorders. Many never get to the hospital or rehab — but they will most likely meet you first. The question is: Will you know what to do when they need help?

This is not just another online course. Most training programmes provide slides and a certificate, but MENDAC equips you with practical knowledge, recognised training, structured intervention frameworks, and hands-on exposure to drug testing and addiction counselling tools.
