AI summary of reviews

Practical scenario work and repeated use of the ALGEE framework help attendees translate mental health first-aid principles into calm, supportive action. They value knowledgeable, empathetic trainers who create safe, inclusive discussions, maintain a clear pace and encourage learning from peers. The blended modules, videos, handbook and breakout exercises build understanding and confidence that transfers to work and personal situations, although some find the online manual awkward to navigate.

Really enjoyed the course with Arthur and Jordan - both did a great job of staying enthusiastic and delivering the materials with a lot of knowledge. I found the interactive self-study much more engaging than just reading content, and it helped me to learn more. I also liked that it was a smaller group on the call, as it meant that we all got to know each other. The addition of the breakout rooms was beneficial too, as we were able to discuss our own professions and how the materials in the course could help. I feel that this course could benefit from more inclusion about women's health, as a lot of women experience anxiety/OCD/depression as part of PMS/PMDD. Also, mentioning puberty and menopause, which can cause hormonal fluctuations that impact mental health.

Fantastic instructor - would highly recommend him to anyone. The inclusion of personal experiences was brilliant. I have given 4 stars for the course content as I feel as though, from personal experience, eating disorders should be covered in the adult MHFA course. I am 35 and have been diagnosed with an eating disorder whilst in my 30s which was linked as a coping mechanism with depression. I do appreciate that it is in the manual and Stephen did touch on it very briefly. I am going to be reading up on that section, however I feel if it was part of the course, the stigma behind it may lessen. I was unaware that Binge Eating Disorder existed until I experienced it myself. Overall - excellent instructor and excellent course - thank you.

Fantastic course. Fantastic instructors!!! Really enjoyed it. I feel now very well equipped in reaching out to someone who might need a MH support and being able to offer correct help.

Michelle is an exceptional teacher, very patient, although I'm quite shy in groups I didn't feel pressure to speak all of the time but just listen . My sincere Thanks to Michelle and all that put the training together

Both Helena and Jordan was very informative, well presented and great opportunities to have discussion in small group but also the main room. I feel much more confident in having conversations around mental health and suicide.
