They value the balance of clear explanation, real-life examples, videos, workbooks, scenarios and group discussion, with inclusive facilitation, regular check-ins and a comfortable pace.

Excellent course, had recommended it to other team members prior to starting and will do even more so now that I have sat it.

Steve was excellent and really made this training interesting. He was personable and honest and reaffirmed why I was interested in taking the course in the first place.

I found this course really interesting and really enjoyed applying ALGEE to scenarios and the discussions that followed. I hope that I keep access to the MHFA Manual in the future, but would really like a hard copy to refer to. The resources and experiences shared by Steve were very valuable and I feel far better equipped to deal with a case of crisis or emergency MHFA in the future. However, I do feel like this was just touching me feet into the water and would value any further training that could be offered, especially face to face rather than online.

David is obviously passionate about the subject and that came through in the delivery. The course could be slightly longer as it felt a little rushed towards the end to fit the schedule

Found the course useful and interesting, feel much more comfortable talking to someone about mental health issues. Found some of the PowerPoints less engaging but the lectures on zooms were very good. Feel comfortable working as part of a team in the organisation to deliver support, I would feel more confident recognising issues that would require referring an individual to seek a GP or other professional support.

We paid for the elearning course which was the same cost as attending the face to face course. We had to purchase the manual even though if we were face to face we would have been given one. Given the cost is the exact same and hours of training is less it is reasonable to expect the manual to be issued and not charged @ £15 each

I enjoyed the course it was very good, it was a very good group of people and Dave the instructor was great, how he presented the course extremally well, only down side was that we had to buy our own books, which if we were attending we would have had these materials given.
