Very enjoyable course and very useful for me to use in my counselling role. I have already signed up for the ASIST course. The ability to help my community, family and friends feels beneficial and a really useful life skill. I have already had discussions on suicide twice this week, with clients and just having the extra confidence to work with them really helped.

Good, interesting course, I learnt alot and it was great to get to think how to also use in our communities to keep communities safe. I work in a community hub which is a safe place and I feel that this training can be useful both to people on a personal level and a work level.

Overall a very good day. Informative but not too heavy. Nicely planned with using break out rooms to do small team discussions. Liked that part.

I have worked through suicide on a general well being supporter training course, it did not give this level of training or confidence to me. I am hoping that I can progress to the second part of this training to learn more. I hope my employer will offer the level 4.
