eLearning
Welcome to Oakwood online
Bringing our unique and engaging delivery style to the world of online learning.
Our eLearning platform enables you and your teams to access the Oakwood wellbeing training content anytime, from anywhere, on any device, at your own pace.
Specialists in mental health and personal safety training, our eLearning programs are used by many companies as part of a blended or standalone learning approach.
Many have chosen to roll out eLearning as the foundation level knowledge, with our live, virtual or face to face trainer-led sessions providing a platform for discussion and sharing of experiences to enhance and build on that knowledge.
We know that people generally don’t enjoy eLearning courses. We believe our eLearning is different from the usual ‘click next’ compliance type training you see so often. Our programs have been developed to be just as interactive, fun, and engaging, as our trainer-led sessions.
Truly Global Programmes
Our programmes are specifically designed for the global nature of your teams
Perfect for large multi-nationals seeking a truly globalised programme that takes into consideration both language and cultural variations, we can tune our global programmes to the geographical spread of your teams.
We use native-speaking specialist trainers who, not only deliver in the local language, help us to perfectly adapt the content for any regional considerations. This will include cultural perspectives, legislation, local resources or signposting variations.
A consistent yet tailored and flexible approach that will drive engagement and the impact of the training across your organisation.

A Wellbeing Partnership
Hear from our clients
Oakwood has been collaborative, pro-active and extremely personable to work with. They are not only passionate about the work they do but more importantly, the impact it has.
Through the Nike Minds programme they developed for us we have a resource for our leaders to use. Rather than being reactive to a situation, we are now empowered to be proactive with our teams.
I would strongly recommend Oakwood to any brand/business that requires support in promoting employee wellbeing within the workplace.
Robert Haining
Director of Retail Stores, Nike
We were looking for a partner, who had a positive approach to Mental Health & Wellbeing. Someone who could convey the message in an engaging way while still being laser sharp about the seriousness of taking care of your own wellbeing. It was important to select a program, which could embrace our Colgate Culture and at the same time tap straight into various local cultures and allow each individual to feel invited and listen to.
The program has been a great success with incredible high participation on both the virtual instructor-led sessions and the eLearning modules. What we particularly love is the bite-sized, fun and interactive way the eLearning is constructed with a great variety to keep the learner hooked.
The equal and unpretentious dialogue Oakwood masters creates psychological safety and opens up for dialogue, vulnerability - and the opportunity to proactively take responsibility
Susanne Vang
Talent Acquisition & Learning Manager - Northern Europe, Colgate-Palmolive Company
We worked with Oakwood to implement mental health and wellbeing training across our workforce- this consisted of classroom based training for managers and a shorter online course. The online course was specifically designed to be lighter touch than the management course and focused on individual wellbeing. The online platform worked well in terms of delivering this as it allowed staff to undertake the training at their own pace at a time that suited them. The ability to start the course and then return to it later was also beneficial to staff in support roles as it allowed them to manage their time effectively and still carry out the day job. Feedback from staff has been very positive and they have commented that they were surprised how much they learned and took away from the online course

Interactive and to the point. It was very compassionate and gave hope. Very insightful and educational and has helped me to have more empathy
Orlaith Downey
Business Analyst - Colgate-Palmolive Company
The key to any content is in its delivery. Nothing short of world class Terry at our Operations Leadership training. Many, many of our colleagues have been discussing this today. That’s testament to your articulation of such a difficult topic. The content is so thought provoking and I’m already trying to embrace some new approaches for my personal ‘wellbeing’ but importantly my team members.
Lee Chambers
Distribution Director, Unipart Group
Very well, mixture of formats kept it fresh. The mix of interactive, video and stories made it easy to stay engaged.
Ciaran Butler
Business Analyst - Colgate-Palmolive Company

Oakwood have completed many sessions for us since engaging with them in 2019. All course delegates praise the trainers for their professionalism, experience, and informative style; making the course easy to digest and changing their outlook on mental health. They have commenced some conflict management training, which we know will be delivered to the same standard.
Tommy Kelly
Group Health and Safety Manager, Matalan
The Oakwood team offer amazing support and guidance when needed. Oakwood were the expert friend that helped us springboard to where we are today, introducing wellbeing champions, Mental Health awareness modules, resilience content and listening groups. We have seen much stronger engagement in wellbeing content specifically and expect that to continue to grow.
Chris Britton
Head of Learning and Development, Carpetright
We were seeking a training partner with experience in delivering services to large complex retailers and one able to deliver the right level of impact across our workforce. We see great potential in using Oakwood’s services to enhance the wellbeing and care of our colleagues; making them feel more confident and able to raise issues they have in the workplace.
