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

I worry that this training assumes (in the majority) that this person either hasn't felt suicidal before, or has never told anyone that they have felt suicidal. This excludes the group said to be at most risk, those who have previously demonstrated suicidal behaviours. It also assumes that the continuum of suicide takes place over a period longer than a few minutes, which often isn't the case.

the course was okay

Just hard to remember that the course is aimed at individuals not used to working with the subject matter

A short session that creates an awareness of suicide. I do think to cover such a wide topic in a short space of time is difficult so a great taster session.

appropriate size number of attendees. trainer was very warm and genuine and totally encouraging. some of the group activities rushed. i have 2 part time jobs. in my other job, they declined to send me on this course an asked me to do a 20 minute on line module which i declined as i do better in a classroom setting with interaction where i can learn from others. that's why i would have liked longer for the sessions where we could practice and learn from others

I came away from this training with some specific strategies I can use to improve my practice which is fantastic.

Good course

A really important subject - I hope I do it justice

good
