Adult eMHFA Wales Reviews

Er pa mor drwm fedr rhai o'r pynciau sy'n codi yn ystod y cwrs fod, teimlaf ei fod wedi'i hwyluso'n ofalus a gofalgar iawn. Yn o gystal teimlaf bod y dull o gymhwyso'r wybodaeth i sefyllfaoedd go iawn yn andros o ddefnyddiol ac yn ffordd dda o godi hyder rhywun i allu gwneud hynny mewn bywyd go iawn.

Enjoyed the session and have learnt a lot from it

It was a brilliant course, thank you. My only slight negative would be that people were often not on mute during group exercises or whole group discussions. Rather than using a function (such as hand up on Teams) the course relied on people unmuting themselves to talk or just being unmuted all the time, and this left quite a few people unable to get a word in! I would have preferred people requesting to speak but I understand that might have made the course longer.

Well presented and led by the presenter

The webinars are by far the most valuable part of the training. Steve was fantastic. He really clearly and directly discusses pretty difficult content and he encourages discussion in a very natural way. I can't recommend him highly enough. I think the online modules are fine - they ensure the participants understand the basics. The online access to the manual is very clunky and basically forces you to pay extra for a hardcopy just to be able to access the content more easily.

I really enjoyed the Course and meeting different colleagues. I have never done this Course on line before as my previous MHFA training has always been in person so I was open to what to expect. I have put 'strongly agree' to most answers above due to the nature of my job which is a Counsellor, so I ask these questions within that. I thought Andrew was very personable and I liked listening to his own lived experience, as well as other colleagues on the Course who shared. I have rated the Course 4 stars as it was well run and was very convenient to do on line, but on reflection it would have been useful to roll it out over 4 webinars / sessions as it is, of course, a huge topic to cover.

Maybe the breakout rooms slightly too long as we got our thoughts out pretty quickly.

Engaging course, very interesting and think it builds on the modules well.

Was a good course, I think a lot of crossover with my psychology degree, so would be interested if there is a similar course that goes a bit beyond what I learn in my degree. Nevertheless I found the scenarios and learning what to and not to say in scenario's the most interesting because I had not learnt this before. I also do not think this is any fault of the course but just who happens to be partaking in it at the same time as me, sometimes in the breakout rooms they were not always the most keen, it felt like, to engage in conversation. But again i guess this is the nature of teams for most.

Good introductory course, it would be useful to be able to take away the handbook, or be able to print it so it can be used for future reference and support further to the webinars. Online modules were very useful and a good way to engage prior to the webinars.
