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

Worth learning and spending more time on.

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
