CAMH Customer Service and De-escalation Training [June 17 option] (17 Jun 2026)

Wed, 17 Jun 2026 17:00:00 GMT

OMGMA has partnered with CAMH to improve access to their half-day, online workshop for front-line staff called Customer Service and De-escalation Training.

Program details

You can read about the training in this program overview and on the CAMH website.

Cost

$319 per person (CAMH does not collect HST)

Participants per workshop

Maximum of 20

CAMH is strict on this. Once the 20 spots are filled for a workshop date, new registrants can add themselves to a wait list.

Your organization will be limited to having a maximum of three people at any one workshop.

Registration info

Front-line staff from OMGMA member clinics/teams should register individually with a unique email address.

When we get a set of 20 participants for a workshop date, we'll hand over the registration list to CAMH and they'll communicate with the registrants from that point on.

Important notes from CAMH

The workshop will be delivered virtually by the facilitators through WebEx (hosted by CAMH). Please ensure that your registrants have the proper technical support to view and participate in the workshop (i.e., a good internet connection and audio and video capabilities).

The workshops may not be recorded under any circumstances.

Participants must do some eLearning before the workshop (details will come from CAMH) and complete an evaluation survey after the workshop.

Reducing barriers and supporting your people

By offering this training through OMGMA, we hope to reduce or eliminate barriers that individual clinics face, such as:

The high cost of training
Your small number of participants (i.e., not enough to get to the maximum of 20 participants and make it a cost-effective investment)
Your need to keep the clinic staffed and open

Workshop feedback

OMGMA has offered this workshop for members' front-line staff five times so far.

96% of survey respondents felt that the training would help them make changes to their work
92% were satisfied or very satisfied
94% would likely or very likely recommend the training to colleagues
