This course is delivered to a very high standard, very informative and very interactive. The knowledge I have gained from this course has given me the understanding, confidence and tools in helping people who are experiencing different levels of mental ill health. The course material is very user friendly and easy on the eye to follow. Overall I have taken away the want to talk about mental health to help tackle the stigma and discrimination that it still holds amongst society and what I and can do to take this forward within the company I work for and outside. I would most definitely be recommending this course to others.

Jane was a fantastic instructor, her vast knowledge was evident throughout the course and Jane bought just the right amount of humour to take the edge off what has been a very emotive subject to learn.

Wasn't sure how a zoom training course would work as I have never done it before, but it was perfect I felt like the whole group gelled as you would in a class environment which is a true reflection of Jane's skills. I really like Cecile too. A very vibrant and warm person 🙂 Thank you to you both for what you have taught me, I feel like I now have the ability to help make a difference to someone who needs it

They were incredibly qualified trainers and that was evident throughout the course in the knowledge that they were able to add to the content they were presenting. Both were incredibly engaging, holding our attention as virtual participants, and despite some tech hitches, the format did work very well. The course felt like a safe zone for participants to open up and ask questions and about their personal experiences or diagnoses. The homework was the right amount and a good blend of videos and reading of the manual. I would highly recommend this course again via Jane's company.

Very interesting and informative. Delivered very professionally in a very comfortable environment (via Zoom). No pressure and fine to ask any questions.

Very good course that has raised spirits and awareness of mental health overall and not just in the work place.I feel like I can be a mental health superhero offering advise and support to anyone!Thanks Jane for very knowledgeable and excellent delivery.

The course was very informative and easy to follow and Jane delivered it in a way that made everyone feel comfortable and included.

I think Jane is a great person to run the course, entertaining, engaging and hugely knowledgeable. The course materials were very well written and I really enjoyed the case study group activities. It worked as a video conference very well. I would certainly recommend the course and feel very confident in sharing ideas with others about mental health and normalising discussion around the topics learned. Thank you

Jane was inspiring in her delivery of the content; she maintained an excellent balance being thoroughly informative, including some humour where appropriate and being highly sensitive whilst travelling over this difficult terrain. I would highly recommend this to others.

I thought the course materials were excellent. The layout of the course manual was useful and made the content easy to access.The activities spread out over the 4 sessions were very useful and supported my developing knowledge and understanding of the topics covered.The use of technology to complete the course via zoom was also very good and facilitated us being able to complete an exceptionally useful course.Jane was a very easy instructor to follow and her use of examples to illustrate certain situations made understanding things easier.

Conducting the entire thing on Zoom in a group of 7 with our instructor was perfect whilst remote it still felt intimate and stimulating and not at all awkward thanks to the expertise & guidance from Jane CattermoleQuality of online resources & interactive exercises also worked well thank you

I found the training really helpful and am coming away from it with a lot of good tips/tools to help me manage my team in a better way. No more ‘At least…..’ from me and I think it will benefit my personal life too!

Very interesting course and well managed as a virtual classroom. Really knowledgeable course instructor who kept everyone engaged and made us all feel part of the group. Excellent experience!

Very informative and a real eye opener! I feel better able and more confident to approach individuals if I see or sense they are in distress.

Really enjoyed the course and worked well remotely - liked how there were different activities to keep us engaged. Interesting hearing other managers’ experiences within the group. Great instructor.

Well done Jane, you managed to keep the tempo of the course just right for online delivery and made for a very enjoyable learning experience.

The course was informative and interactive even if we were all in different locations. Jane made the whole experience quite fluid and interesting and I did enjoy the learning and sharing experiences with other managers

I really enjoyed the course. Jane did an oustanding job over zoom. She is very professional and knowledgeable - made everyone feel at ease.

As a manager I was a little stressed at having to find the time for this but, within the first 10 minutes actually, was engaged. I see why it’s mandatory. I wouldn’t have volunteered for it but am so glad I have done it. I have some very practical resources to use and it’s made me consider how my actions affect others and to prioritise my own mental health. Exemplify!

Very good and very useful under the current COVID-19 situation. Gives a reminder to all on the impact of the situation on others. Very good adaption for on-line, Microsoft Teams or Zoom delivery. Thank you

Just wanted to say that I have already had someone come and talk to me about some issues they are having at the moment. They have been struggling with depression and I was able to offer support and listen. I am so glad this training was organised and just thought you might like to know that it is already helping people. Thanks so much.

Completely myth busting. I feel far more prepared (and less worried) to support people who are suffering. Loved it.

Best course I have done. Ever. Should be mandatory for all staff – definitely managers. Thank you Jane for bringing it to life.

Excellent! This course has opened my eyes to the breadth of mental health issues / challenges there are. Jane put across the information in such a way to dispel myths, increase my confidence in supporting people who may have a mental illness. Some great techniques discussed. Thank you.

Jane was amazingly relaxing, knowledgeable and inspiring. By far the best training I have done on mental health - thank you!

This training has revolutionized my thinking on mental health. I will absolutely be applying it not only to my immediate team but the wider company (and my personal life). Thank you!

I now feel more confident to ask direct questions about their mental health. I encourage others to talk by confirming how common mental health problems are and that people do get better, with the right help.

This has been one of the most interesting and enjoyable training courses I have been on in years. In an ideal world, I’d put all management on the course!
