Asthma AwarenessDiploma Course

What Is Asthma and Why Awareness Matters

You’ll begin with the basics, looking at the symptoms of asthma, what happens during an asthma attack, and how asthma is classified into different types and severities. Exploring these common causes and triggers will help you gain a stronger understanding of why asthma can vary so much from person to person.

Triggers, Lifestyle, and Everyday Challenges

This course on asthma awareness helps you recognise how the condition impacts daily life. This section explores:

• Environmental and genetic risk factors that can influence asthma.

• Common triggers such as allergens, pollution, and exercise.

• Tips for managing asthma day-to-day, including creating supportive environments at home, work, or school.

You’ll also learn about conditions that often appear alongside asthma, like eczema and allergies, to gain a more rounded perspective.

Living Well and Raising Awareness

Beyond recognising triggers, this course introduces non-clinical approaches that people sometimes explore, such as breathing techniques and mindfulness. These are presented for awareness only, to help you understand the broader wellbeing conversation around asthma.

You’ll also look at how to raise awareness and help reduce stigma in workplaces, schools, and communities. This knowledge helps you feel more confident when talking about asthma and supporting others in a non-professional setting.

• Understand the definition of asthma and its main triggers.
