I'm thrilled to have taken the Psychological First Aid course at Stanmore School of Business! As a mental health professional in the United States, I was looking to enhance my skills in providing emotional support to individuals in crisis. The course exceeded my expectations, providing me with practical tools and techniques to assess and address the psychological needs of my clients. The instructor's expertise and the quality of the course materials were exceptional. I appreciated the emphasis on cultural sensitivity and the examples of how to apply the principles of psychological first aid in diverse settings. I've already started applying the knowledge and skills I gained in my daily practice, and I'm confident that this course will have a lasting impact on my career.
I found the Psychological First Aid course to be really helpful in understanding how to support people who have experienced trauma. The course materials were easy to follow, and I liked that we got to practice our skills through role-playing exercises. One thing that really stuck with me was the importance of self-care when working with people who have been through difficult situations. The instructor was knowledgeable and provided lots of examples from their own experience. My only suggestion would be to include more case studies from Asia, as the ones we covered were mostly from Western countries. Overall, I'm glad I took the course and feel more confident in my ability to provide psychological first aid.

The instructor was very knowledgeable and provided lots of examples from their own experience working with individuals in crisis. I appreciated the focus on evidence-based practices and the emphasis on ongoing evaluation and improvement.

The only reason I didn't give it a 5.0 is that I would have liked to see more discussion of the cultural and societal factors that can impact mental health outcomes in different contexts.
