This was my first experience of virtual/online training and I found it to be very positive. I felt that the duration was just right and the support was there if needed due to the sensitive nature of the discussions.

Just like any other first aid course, refresher courses for mental health first aid should also become a priority because depending on your job role, it may be only occasionally that you are able to help someone having suicidal thoughts. Courses like this are incredibly important initially but also ongoing. The videos were excellent and helped give 'real life' examples for us to relate to.

The training has defiantely gievn me more confidence to discuss and recognise signs. I think there is always room for improvement though from me as a practicioner.

The course was well organised for a virtual learning space. This is not the first training session I have done during COVID but it was certainly the best. The course was interactive, interesting and provided lots of opportunities to participate. Already the course has proved to be invaluable as I have used skills learnt in my current job.
