About the Health Education curriculum

The Health Education curriculum is a complete, self-paced course in life skills & personal development, organised into 3 progressive levels and 9 modules. It opens with Foundations of Health promotion basics and Core methods in Nutrition & activity, moves through Applying Mental health literacy and finishes with expert-level work on Leading practice in Media & health claims and Mastering A personal health plan.

Across the whole path you work through 27 individual topics — from Health promotion basics and Putting health promotion basics to work at the start to Putting a personal health plan to work and Checking your understanding of a personal health plan by the end. The levels are estimated at 6 weeks · about 24 hours, 8 weeks · about 32 hours and 10 weeks · about 40 hours. Each level assumes the one before it, so you can work straight through from Intermediate to Expert, or start at the level that matches what you already know.

It is built for independent learners who want a serious, structured introduction rather than a collection of tips. The path mixes explanation with small reflective exercises, so the ideas become habits you can actually sustain.

Every module pairs a written summary with a worked example, a short quiz to check the idea landed, and a project brief drawn from real practice. You are never asked to take a concept on trust: the reasoning, the common mistakes and the situations where the approach stops working are all laid out, so you finish a module able to explain the idea rather than only recognise it.

What you’ll be able to do

By the end of the Health Education path you should be able to work confidently with:

Intermediate Health Education

Modules: Foundations of Health promotion basics · Core methods in Nutrition & activity · Applying Mental health literacy

  • Health promotion basics: Health promotion basics is where many Health Education learners first get stuck, so the module slows down, isolates the difficult step and rebuilds it with you.
  • Putting health promotion basics to work: This module treats Health promotion basics as a tool: the question it answers, what it assumes, and what a correct use of it looks like in Health Education.
  • Checking your understanding of health promotion basics: Health promotion basics is where many Health Education learners first get stuck, so the module slows down, isolates the difficult step and rebuilds it with you.

Project: Write a one-page explanation of Health promotion basics in your own words, with an example you chose yourself, and test it against the module checklist.

Advanced 8 weeks · about 32 hours 3 modules 9 topics

Advanced Health Education

Build on the intermediate level through Relationships & consent, Substance awareness and Safety & first aid. The emphasis shifts from knowing the ideas to choosing between them — trade-offs, failure modes and the reasoning behind each decision.

Modules: In depth Relationships & consent · Patterns and trade-offs in Substance awareness · Scaling Safety & first aid

  • Relationships & consent: The module examines Relationships & consent closely, including the assumptions beneath it and what changes when those assumptions stop holding.
  • Putting relationships & consent to work: Here Relationships & consent becomes a design decision. You compare alternatives, justify a choice and test it against a harder problem.
  • Checking your understanding of relationships & consent: The module examines Relationships & consent closely, including the assumptions beneath it and what changes when those assumptions stop holding.

Project: Produce a short case analysis in which Relationships & consent drives the recommendation, including the alternatives you rejected and why.

Expert 10 weeks · about 40 hours 3 modules 9 topics

Expert Health Education

Work at the edge of Health Education through Navigating health services, Media & health claims and A personal health plan. The modules assume fluency and ask for judgement: designing, critiquing and defending work at a professional standard.

Modules: Frontiers of Navigating health services · Leading practice in Media & health claims · Mastering A personal health plan

  • Navigating health services: Navigating health services is examined at the frontier, with an emphasis on open problems, rigorous argument and decisions you can defend.
  • Putting navigating health services to work: This module asks you to critique and extend Navigating health services rather than simply apply it, producing work another expert could review.
  • Checking your understanding of navigating health services: Navigating health services is examined at the frontier, with an emphasis on open problems, rigorous argument and decisions you can defend.

Project: Write a professional-standard brief on Navigating health services — argument, evidence, limitations — plus a plan for taking the work further.

Once you have finished, the Health Education path is a reasonable foundation for your own practice, teaching and community work.
