Youth eMHFA Wales reviews

AI summary of reviews

Attendees particularly value the practical use of the ALGEE framework, scenarios and discussions, which make difficult mental-health topics approachable and give them confidence to recognise distress and start sensitive conversations with young people. They describe knowledgeable, empathetic trainers who create a relaxed, non-judgemental space, alongside a well-structured blend of self-study, webinars and breakout activities. The handbook and resources support application at work, though some prefer face-to-face delivery.

I think Leah was very informative and I feel like I have learn a lot from this course. This course has given me a huge confident boost in my role to deal with these types of situations. It is great having the formula of ALGEE to use when talking to students about problems. I feel the content was very useful and specific to my job as a Progress Course but it also covered aspects that I have not experienced with my students, so I now feel confident if a situation like this arose. I am very happy I have completed this course. Thank you

The instructor was brilliant, made me feel very welcoming and created a lovely atmosphere within the group despite it being online. Considering the nature of the topics, he kept it interesting and spoke well. The materials were brilliant and very informative. I really enjoyed the discussions, break out rooms and scenarios. It enabled us know put the theory into practice which is very important. I would recommend this course to anyone!

Becky was brilliant in the delivery of materials. I felt that my own mental health was protected at all times whilst discussing difficult topics. There was a personal element to the delivery and it felt as though we could all openly discuss mental health which leads the way for us as mental health first aiders and proves that it does not need to be a taboo topic. I have come away from this course with more confidence in how to best support someone who may be struggling. I am very grateful for the chance to take part in this course.

Thank you for two informative and well organised days. The trainers were incredible at making us feel comfortable considering the intensity of the course. I felt the real life examples were helpful and we were all able to relate the content to practical situations.

I really enjoyed the course. Both Mandy & Sam gave lots of real life examples to bring the training to life which was helpful. We were all encouraged positively to contribute & it was great to hear from a wide variety of people & their experiences. To enhance the training even further, it would be great to have more college-based scenarios and how to use ALGEE in those instances. I am feeling much better equipped to help people in a crisis as a first point of contact. Thanks again!
