Great trainer

MD was fabulous, her positive energy and sense of humour helped to make a heavy subject much more digestible. She validated everyone's input and responses, I really valued her approach. There was a lot of existing knowledge in the room and I commend MD's commitment to inviting, recognising and reflecting on that knowledge and experience. I don't have any suggestions for improvement, MD's facilitation style resonated with me and reflects my own. I have done an SFA USI course before, and work in this space, but this was a great refresher and useful reminder of things like the ripple effect and the 'pause' - not life or death - approach.

Great course, feel prepared to have a good conversation about suicide should I need to support someone in crisis.

Great trainer who made sure we understood each section before moving on and encourage us to engage in each activity

This was such a good course, it was really useful to have the workbook to follow along with the presentation. It was also really helpful to have the video to show how to support someone.

Great training with knowledge to make you feel comfortable about approaching and speaking to someone with thoughts of suicide.

It was a helpful, useful course

It’s given some really great tools, resources, questions and just a general process to mentally use which I did not think existed.

I have had my friends talk to me about suicide twice but I did not know how to take it. Honestly, this is an eye opener. I am now confident that I will help using the steps I learnt today.
