Suicide Awareness Training (Free Course)

Each of our courses ends with a multiple choice test to measure your knowledge of the material.

This Suicide Awareness course concludes with a 5 question multiple choice test with a printable certificate. In addition, brief in-course questions guide the user through the sections of the training and are designed to reinforce learning and ensure maximum user engagement throughout.

As well as printable user certificates, training progress and results are all stored centrally in your LMS (Learning Management System) and can be accessed any time to reprint certificates, check and set pass marks and act as proof of a commitment to ongoing legal compliance.

What does my certificate include?

Your Suicide Awareness Certificate includes your name, company name (if applicable), name of course taken, pass percentage, date of completion, expiry date and stamps of approval or accreditations by recognised authorities.

Please note if you are using our course content via SCORM in a third party LMS then we are unable to provide certificates and you will need to generate these in your host LMS yourself.

Suicide is a difficult subject, and for many people it can feel uncomfortable or upsetting to talk about. But for those who are struggling, being seen, heard and supported can make an enormous difference. Learning how to approach this topic with care helps create spaces where people feel safer to open up and seek help when they need it.

Many people who experience suicidal thoughts don’t know how to ask for help, or fear being judged if they do. This can leave them feeling isolated at a time when connection matters most.

This training helps break down some of the common fears and misconceptions around suicide, including the worry that talking about it might make things worse. Learners are shown that asking direct, compassionate questions can actually reduce risk by giving someone permission to speak openly and feel heard. By understanding the warning signs and risk factors, people are better equipped to notice when something may be wrong, even when signs are subtle or unexpected.

The course also recognises that supporting someone at risk can be emotionally challenging. Learners are guided on how to offer support without taking on responsibility for “fixing” the situation, and how to care for their own wellbeing along the way. By increasing awareness, confidence, and compassion, this training helps create cultures where people feel safer to talk, seek help, and support one another when it matters most.
