Home / About us / Academy

Sometimes the solution lies not in an extensive organisational programme, but in greater knowledge and skills among the people who deal with stress, workload, and employees on a daily basis.

The Academy for Stress Management trains professionals to recognise stress earlier, make it open to discussion, and deal with it in a practical and professional manner.

Knowledge you can apply immediately

The Academy's educational programmes combine knowledge of stress, behaviour, and recovery with practical skills for everyday practice.

Participants learn, among other things, how to:

  • recognise stress signals earlier;
  • understand the impact of stress on the body and behaviour;
  • conduct constructive conversations about stress and overload;
  • better support and guide employees and teams;
  • translate prevention into daily practice;
  • contribute to healthy and sustainable working practices.

Academy and Centre for Stress Management

The Academy for Stress Management and the Centre for Stress Management complement one another.

The Academy focuses on knowledge, education, and professional development. The Centre for Stress Management supports organisations with concrete challenges surrounding work-related stress, prevention, absenteeism, and sustainable employability.

This combination can be particularly valuable for organisations: addressing what is happening internally én equipping employees or managers with the expertise to independently take action.

FAQ

The Academy provides training and shares knowledge. CVSM translates that expertise into programmes and interventions within organisations, with a focus on measurability, implementation, and safeguarding.

Stress Scan is suitable for baseline and direction. Sprint is appropriate when pressure and absenteeism risks rise. Brain Wellness is relevant for measurably embedding leadership. Change Support is appropriate for change-related strain.

Both, but always with safeguarding. Training without changes in agreements and rhythm often leads to relapse. We focus on what continues to work.
