Psychological First Aid - Online Course Delivery

Summary and scope

Bundaberg Regional Council's (Council) Disaster Management division is seeking a delivery partner in making a suitable Psychological First Aid course available to communities within the Bundaberg local government area (LGA) via an online mode of delivery. This course will be self-paced, allowing participants to complete the course in their own time and must be aligned with the utilisation of these skills in the context of bushfire and other disasters.The availability of a First Nations adapted Psychological First Aid course will be viewed favourably and delivery of this adapted course in-person is desired.It is intended that the service be available and operational by the end of July 2026 (earlier if possible), with an initial purchase of one hundred (100) participant places to gauge uptake. Additional participant places may be purchased as the initial allocation becomes depleted, inline with projected uptake rates. This program will end on 31/03/2027, when the budgeted spend has been exhausted or if the initial purchase is not entirely utilised, whichever comes first and at the discretion of Council. With reference to above, this service will be provided online. As such, delivery partners outside of the Bundaberg LGA are also invited to make a submission. Any First Nations adapted courses are preferred to be delivered via an in-person delivery mode.Bundaberg Regional Council requests that this course be hosted externally. Council's online learning platform facilitates internal training only and as such, a SCORM package cannot be accepted.
