Great course!

Overall good engaging training, linked well to practice, lots of real life examples. Lots of useful resources provided, I like how the training was broken up with video clips, exercises and shared experiences.

The course material, resources (and the instructors themselves) were a high standard. The e-learning that I did prior to each session was easy to navigate and follow. The instructions, expectations and objectives from both Gail and Tor were made clear from the beginning and those standards were maintained throughout. The group that I was with were all very like-minded individuals, professional conversations were open and honest and didn't deviate from the course material. Thank you to Gail and Tor for running this course, it has helped me in knowing that I am conscious of Mental Health in young people and I can continue to support them with the knowledge, strategies and tools that have been provided during this course.

Overall it was an enjoyable course and I did learn a lot. The trainer was knowledgeable. The online version of the manual is too small to read, I assume this is so we will buy one. It would be better in the in person course if people were asked to use the hands up icon to answer any questions as people end up talking over each other. I couple of times I went to answer and people were already talking. Using this icon means people will be answered in order. Found it a little repetitive at times. I would however still recommend the training.

One of the best training events I have been on. I have learnt so much. Steve is brilliant and I cannot thank him enough

The course was really informative and gave really good examples and stories that were real life so could understand situations more easily. Even though this is a tough emotional subject was facilitated in an interesting and easy way to help talk about difficult situations. Some really good tools provided like the jam jar and the continuum to see where people may be. The venue was nice but not very good with refreshments. It is also isolated to be able to go out for food if unable to bring any.

Course was really good would reccoment to anyone learnt a lot in the four sessions the Miriam and the voice task was very effective
