Very interesting and educational course. Very well delivered by the trainer. I have not put strongly agree on some questions as I feel I need to grow in confidence a little more. Also general feedback is I think more time and information should be given in relation to self care. This is very important if we do not look after ourselves we would struggle to help others. I think this area should be fed throughout the course not just 10 minutes at the end as it feels it is not as important as the other content but it is just as important. Otherwise really enjoyed the course.Response : Thanks Joanne the problem is it's such a content heavy course but I totally agree that we can't emphasize enough how much we each need to prioritize our own self-care. Thank you so much for your engagement with the course and the group.

I think having the course online was ok, but feel having the group breakouts in person we'd get more engagement, i felt the course was insightful and good but would prefer in person for such indepth content. but yea very good course

The first pre-course work (modules 1-4) I did find quite difficult to complete as the site referred to an exit button top right which wasn't there, I navigated and muddled through, at end of module there were 3 occasions I hadn't marked as complete so had to redo the module to tick it off. The second time around the site was far more user friendly so I don't know if improvements had been made between the two webinars. I found the blended learning great approach, the webinars were fab, useful discussions, very knowledgeable tutor who made sure each participant was involved/gave feedback. Previously in 2017 I did my MHFA qualification in person on 2 (or 3) day training, this time the blended approach has been a great tool for me to requalify. It does involve alot more reading up on conditions etc yourself as was not as thorough as face to face previous approach I did - but I still found it extremely valuable and I got alot from doing it thank you Carol.Response : Paula, thank you for the feedback. I'm sorry the modules were difficult to navigate. I loved working with you all. thank you, Carol

I have really enjoyed this course. It has encouraged me to be more confident in my approaches with talking to people. where there were niggaly doubts of would I say/do that, they have been thoroughly answered within this course. Patrick made the course a pleasure to be in and encouraged us to think for ourselves before clarifying our answers. It has made things stick with me easier. would highly recommend this to others. Thankyou for allowing me to take part and share my experiences.
