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

There was an echo in the room so sometimes found it difficult to hear what was being said.

Very good course with a well equipped tutor.

I feel more comfortable and confident in dealing with the situation/topic. Venue acoustic weren’t very good.

Good course, good lecturer. Thanks

I marked this "After completing the training are you more confident you can recognise the signs that someone may be experiencing thoughts of suicide?" as NO because I felt confident prior to the course that I could recognise these signs. I don't find role play in these situations useful as it is not real life and I don't think it adds anything. I would have preferred to spend more time focussing on ways to help someone in this situation. I found some bits confusing, i.e. first we are told we are only administering 'first aid' to the person thinking of suicide and to hand over to a professional, then later we were told not to rush to hand over but to concentrate on building rapport with the person. The course was a bit long. Some people were flagging for the last hour and a half.

Good input and was helpful for unfortunately how common this now is

Good Course

I found this course to be relevant to my role and also beneficial. It is a taboo subject but one that definitely provides me with information and understanding of how to identify, approach and offer support to people.

Great course and a wonderful tutor, Shain was brilliant and she obviously has lots of experience in teaching courses. There is a limit to what we can achieve via online training. However, Shian did a brilliant jobe to lead us through the whole training

Very knowledgeable tutor with very evident experience. A presentation in keeping with the nature and seriousness of the subject.
