at the right time, help is on the way. Morneau Shepell, provider of Life- Works EAP and digital mental health services, announced the release of its first continuing education course specifically for benefit brokers.

Structured as a comprehensive overview of best practices, the course identifies the types of EAPs available today and the essential role that EAP access and new technologies have on creating a healthier and more productive workforce. Of course, the course couldn’t come at a better time. Employee wellbeing and mental health are front-and-center with the pandemic.
