Thank you very much to Sam and Wendy - I found the training very helpful and it also drew attention to misconceptions regarding mental health.
A very nice refresher course for me having worked in mental health for many years, but been away from it for a while. There were also quite a few point that were new to me. My only issue is that there were quite a few typos in the teaching material and some of the sentences could be revised to make them easier to make sense of. This sometimes disrupted the sense of the material and at times made concentrating on the content difficult.
Would have liked more videos of scenarios. Would have liked a bit more time to do the modules as found it hard to fit them in with work/ home life. Thanks
Very good discussions and practical info Approachable trainers
While some of the subjects are hard going, the sessions were run in such a way that it made it very interesting and approachable.
Promoted a better understanding of what mental first aid is and what you can do to intervene without being an expert. Liked the online modules, especially the one about eating disorders.
A really good balance between group discussions and presentation material during these sessions. Good to do self study modules before the training to have a good mix of learning styles .
Sara, our instructor was excellent; very knowledgeable and confident with a clear authentic presence. She responded thoughtfully to our engagement with all elements of the course. I thought the course materials were good, but I did think there was room to acknowledge the impact of neurodiversity and overlaps with many of the mental health presentations that were covered. While I know conditions like Autism aren't mental disorders, they do correlate with higher than average incidence of anxiety, depression and other mental health issues.
This course was very informative and outstandingly presented. The instructors were knowledgeable and passionate, relaying useful tips to us to use.
