I thoroughly enjoyed taking part in the course its extremely valuable to have the knowledge to approach and help learners on campus in a safe and mindful manner.
A great course with lots of opportunities to discuss with colleagues and apply ALGEE. I feel much more well equipped and confident to tackle this moving forward.
The course was really informative for me, thank you very much. Hopefully my skills will help me to help the children.
An excellent course and would certainly recommend to others. Diolch
I found this course very informative and very well delivered, I would say I learnt a lot and it gave me the confidence of what I have used in the past with young people. I would say that some elements were quite upsetting and even though I didn't excuse myself I appreciated the fact that I could.
Enjoyed the course thoroughly and although i hope i don't have to deal with the types of scenarios we discussed i am more confident in my ability to do so. Thank you
Very helpful course. I would recommend this course to an individual who has a lack of mental health knowledge as well as someone who thinks they have a good knowledge of mental health as it is beneficial for both.
My only comment for improvement would be for the facilitators/trainers to have access to more relevant videos, that depict teaching practitioners or those not necessarily related/close to the people suffering with poor mental health (throughout each module). Whilst the videos were incredibly effective and very emotive - the familial element somewhat removed me from thinking of it in terms of how I may help students and threw me straight into paternal/family mode.
The course exceeded my expectations! The ALGEE framework, the resources, and the clarity about the role and boundaries of the first aider make me much more confident about handling mental health incidents. With this training, I am no longer in doubt or anxious about getting it right. Further, the delivery model (self-learning and webinar) worked well for me. It enabled us to learn and process the ideas individually and later deepen our understanding by discussing and hearing different perspectives during the webinar. Thank you!
It was not always easy to hear Wendy. My main concern with the course contents was the emphasis on youth rather than adult. Many of the videos and scenarios related to 'school pupils' rather than adults - many students are not 18 years old when they start course but considerably older
