The National Centre for Suicide Prevention Education & Training UK CIC Reviews

A well managed session as it can't be easy to try and run virtually especially when active participation is encouraged

It was well structured. I am aware it was online and am sure that normally there would have been a more practical input but it would be nice to get some more 'on the ground' type advice and training regarding directly speaking to someone in that situation. Knowledge was imparted well and trainer was axcellant, would have liked some more practical advice but the overall information was good and has improved my awareness of suicide and dealing with it. I beleive so yes however I would say if it could be given to officers younger in service, (i am 3 years in), maybe that would be helpful to them as mental health is a huge issue for modern policing and the more awareness young in service offciers get the better they would get at dealing with it.

Good and helpful course

The course was what I had expected and it covered the subject in a very easy to understand way. It was well worth doing, and I have learned a lot from the course.

Would like more time spent on the safety plan and how to deal with resistance from people when trying to find solutions to each part.

Would have liked to be able to see the rest of the delegates and been asked questions rather than typing answers

Informative and well presented

It would be great if we were sent the slides. To look over, in our own time.

This has really armed me with a tool kit of resources that I feel I will be able to use well in the future and will help me if I ever find myself or others in this situation.

Very good course. I feel that due to my personality it is still out of my comfort zone to speak about this kind of thing or to approach someone, however it has given me more confidence and tools to do so.
