The National Centre for Suicide Prevention Education & Training UK CIC Reviews

very informative, gave us lots of opportunities to not take part if we felt uncomfortable and constantly checked we was okay.

really wanted to go through work book and complete to end

Found the course quite painful

Great trainer

I find the training quite resourceful, and with great learnings that can impact on my interactions with the people I support in various spheres of life.

Shorter course and less breaks

Quite a disappointing display, felt excluded from sharing throughout and was concerned with the amount of incorrect 'facts' - referring to a suicidal person like a prisoner and someone who suffered with bi-polar as a 'manic depressive'. This course requires an update.

The course was very good, however unfortunately I do think being online limited it and made it feel more intense. I would have preferred an in person course. I understand they are offered, however I was unable to attend the in person session for my organisation.

overall good base to practice

I think that the time spent surrounding language management, with what can and cannot be said, was a little much. I feel like the concerns around what shouldn't be said have hindered my much more natural response to helping someone who may be experiencing suicidal thoughts. I understand that this can be a delicate, emotive subject. However, I think a little more directness of the subject matter, may help learners in a more engaging, realistic way. The tutor was ace, and I understand it is a difficult subject.
