Excellently ran by Sandra but I still believe a course of this nature would be better ran in a in person work shop/course

The course itself was nice and basic. My problem is, is that after 2 Days!, you are given a certificate to say your a Mental Health First Aider. Mental Health is a delicate mater and saying the wrong thing to someone in difficulty or giving the wrong advice, can have serious consequences. You are handing out certificates like sweets. I could of sat at home, in front of my laptop, whilst playing on my Xbox and still been given a certificate. I will not call myself a Mental Health First Aider. Eventually I would like to be. If I could give you this certificate back, I would.

Response: Hi Carl, Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. I am sorry that you feel that the course did not meet your expectations. We are driven by the set syllabus set by MHFA England which has over 20 years of research behind it. Indeed Mental Health is complex and that is why MHFAiders are taught to sign post to appropriate professional services.

Great course! I learned a lot and hope to be able to put my knowledge in practice.

A well organised course with plenty of opportunity to confidently share your views. Quite fast paced in the breakout rooms but it was good to get mixed up between the other attendees to share thoughts and views.

I thought the course was really good, it taught me skills to put into practice to really do some good and hopefully help people who are struggling and in need of it.

The Course was great and i can see how it has evolved from my course in 2017, only down side was the admin for the course, link for course only received 10mins before course start even though requested the week before, and then on second day link didn't work but then eventually did.
