I found this course extremely informative and very well planned out. The language used is simple and easy to understand. I have saved a copy of the booklet and will print it up for future reference. Validating a persons feelings and thoughts are the key for helping people through this type of crisis.

A great introduction. A good introduction to important aspects of supporting others, while also caring for yourself. Some of the content is common sense, although it doesn’t hurt to be reminded of these concepts. There are also very important additional strategies and resources provided. The accompanying workbook will be a very useful ongoing reference. I took the online course, so did not get to practice the skills in a supported environment, but feel more confident now that I have range of strategies and resources that I can access when helping others.

Easy and efficient online learning. I enjoyed having the opportunity to complete this course independently through online learning with my workplace. This was an efficient use of my time and meant that I could also access the course to learn even during Covid-19 working from home arrangements. I enjoyed having the opportunity to self reflect and many of the activities or tips given affirmed what I already do or believed may have been right but have never had the formal training. The short videos throughout are good to break up the text – I would enjoy seeing more of them with the actual presenters like at the beginning and end. This would add more personal touch and provide a welcome break from the computerised voices. Overall, I am glad I spent time doing this course today. Thank you.
