One of the best virtual training i have done (and i have done a lot during lockdown). It held my attention throughout and i learnt a lot that i can take forward at work. The worksheets were really good and i would be able to use the skills in future. Liked the self care check in tool and life wheel. Really useful to have the resources to support my clients. Excellent training session - really enjoyed it.
Excellent course and more people from all agencies should do it.
I feel far more confident to approach a conversation with a suicidal person and support them through the process. I feel that the first section around suicide could have been condensed. This would have left more time to expand on the suicide safety guide - 3 steps. Possibly analysing case studies or videos in small groups and how we would respond to these situations.
I feel this is a great opportunity to get an in-depth understanding of how to respond to a person who may be suicidal.

Really enjoyed the training which will be paramount in my working practice
My 4 stars do not reflect the trainer/training success, rather an acknowledgement that I feel that no matter the amount of training, it is in the experience, but I feel *way* more prepared and equipped thanks to this course and Alison's skillful delivery. Thank you Alison, and all involved in supporting this training.
This did equip me with further ideas of how to approach the subject. However I was uncomfortable about approaching a young person or child with the question 'are you thinking about suicide'. On speaking to a colleague who is a secondary teacher, they said that they are taught never to ask a question like this so directly to a child. As a paramedic I can sometimes ask the question to a young person who has attempted it and its obvious but I probably wouldn't to one who had just say got drunk or feels depressed.
