This week is Mental Health Awareness Week. It’s a turbulent time for many of us so we hope that you’re all coping during the pandemic. If you’re in need of a little support, we’ve just launched a set of courses from GO1 full of practical tools and guidance in managing your health and wellbeing. You can access GO1’s wellness pathway here.
Being part of a community can go a long way in helping to support your wellbeing, so if you’re facing any specific challenges related to work consider reaching out to your peers in the sector spaces. There are a lot of great resources being shared that are focused on the special challenges faced within industry sectors such as healthcare, retail, energy, government, technology, and professional services. If you’re not already a member, consider getting involved this week.

Webinars on-demand
We’ve got some great webinars coming up. But, don’t forget you can access all our webinars on-demand at any point. In the last few weeks we’ve focused on:
- Setting up virtual training sessions with Totara Learn
- Hidden gems for Site Administrators in Totara Learn
Here’s what’s coming up in the next few weeks:
Social learning within Totara Learn 27th May 4pm (BST) / 10am (CST)
Learning doesn’t always happen in isolation. In fact, learning is often social; whether acquiring new knowledge through interaction with peers and experts or reflecting on what you’ve learnt through discussion. Learning takes place through participation and interaction, through sharing with others.
Next Wednesday, join Totara's Senior Solutions Consultant Meredith Henson and I as we discuss social learning and talk-through the various social tools available to help build an engaged online community of learners.

Automation with Totara Learn 10th June 4pm (BST) / 10am (CST)
Your Learning Management System has to meet ever-changing needs. Keeping up with new users, new courses and new learning requirements can be challenging.
There are a number of ways to automate administrative tasks across Totara Learn, so as a Site Administrator, you can instead concentrate on supporting users and discovering new ways of using your LMS.
If you’d like us to run one of these sessions live in your time zone, please do get in touch so we can review the demand.
Follow us on Twitter and LinkedIn to be the first to know about new resources and updates!
See you all in the community!
