Please note: these training materials are currently under review and in development. Content may change as the Working Groups continue to refine them.
Working Group 1
Inclusion, youth engagement and inter-disciplinary innovation
Explore evidence and perspectives on inclusion, meaningful youth engagement, and interdisciplinary innovation in research and digital mental health design. This learning path brings together patient and public involvement, co-design, participatory practice, and user-centered design to examine how people can influence research and development. Critically consider power, participation experiences, contextual barriers, and the limitations of different approaches, then connect these insights to more inclusive collaboration and evaluation in your own work.

Working Group 2
Help-seeking, information and misinformation
Explore scientific evidence on digital tools that support young people’s mental health information-seeking and help-seeking. This learning path brings together future priorities, a cross-country analysis of youth mental health apps in Europe, and review-level evidence on best practices and minimum standards. Learners critically examine tool quality, access, and the implications of information and misinformation, while distinguishing supported findings from evidence gaps.

Working Group 3
Contextual and early assessment and intervention
Explore the scientific evidence informing contextual and early assessment and intervention in mental health. This learning path brings together research on ambulatory and mobile assessment, personal sensing, machine learning, and prediction in precision psychiatry. Critically examine methodological quality, societal and ethical implications, and barriers to implementation, while distinguishing promising research findings from established clinical utility. Connect insights across the literature to identify evidence gaps and priorities for further investigation.
