Emma was really engaging and very knowledgeable. Overall, it was a very informative session and Emma did really well given that our learning was remote.

I enjoyed this course and found the instructors both knowledgeable and engaging. The information was presented in a clear, easy to understand way, which made it easy to relate to my day to day experiences. I feel understanding and enhancing our mental health is key to living a happy and fulfilling life, and I would encourage everyone to take the time to take this course to familiarise themselves with the challenges and pitfalls we all face, and understand the tools we can use to overcome them.

Sad to see many people continuing chat threads that were 'social' rather than related to course content. It disturbed my concentration as I felt I needed to check in on what was going on. Thanks for your understanding of me needing to leave temporarily

It could help future courses if there were opportunities for colleagues to discuss in breakout rooms to reinforce learning points rather than rely purely on reading chat comments.

This was an excellent introduction for me about Mental Health Awareness. I came on the course to help me develop my management skills for one of my team who suffers with mental health problems. It also helped me identify a lot of techniques that I use personally to keep my own mental health balanced. Having never suffered from mental health problems personally, but watching a family member suffer I am very much in favour of prevention instead of waiting to have to cure. It did also help me identify that stress is part of mental health, and that is something that I do personally need to keep an eye on. Being busy all the time, is not a good thing....my Mum has told me this for years, but seeing it in black & white is an eye opener!! Thanks Gary, you really have put together a brilliant course, which will do a lot of people good.

Gary was excellent in guiding the group through engaging with the content and sometimes shutting down potential tangents from individuals in a very positive way. Previous sessions I've attended linked to mental health (not from this provider) have sometimes upset me by raising issues a bit too close to home - Gary's factual and scientific approach and the way he injects humour at key points meant I was able to fully engage with the session and learn so much about how I can better manage my own anxiety (and what causes it) and I'm looking forward to putting what I've learned into practice. Thank you
