In 2020, alcohol-related deaths increased by 20% compared to the previous year, and was the highest annual number since records began in 2001. UK employers, particularly in the health and social care sector, often require employees to have a knowledge of the dangers of alcohol consumption. Whether you are an individual looking for an alcohol awareness course for personal or professional reasons, or an employer looking for alcohol awareness training for staff, this course has got you covered.

Our Level 1 Award in Alcohol Awareness online course aims to raise awareness and provide a range of skills, knowledge and understanding surrounding alcohol misuse. It covers subjects such as unit strengths of different types of alcohol, the effects of alcohol misuse, health issues associated with alcohol, withdrawing from alcohol, and where to find help and support to stop drinking.
