Excellent course and many thanks.

Excellent course too.

No summary provided

Interesting good content clear & concise

I think we're all affected by mental health either personally, directly or indirectly. The course gave some great practical tools to help understand and influence

Interesting and full of good facts and advice

Perhaps if people view this course it may be able to prevent people from falling into depression. Which can only be a good thing.

Clear and precise and about the right length of time to complete

I found this course on Mental Health Awareness really easy to absorb, plain English, bite sized pieces of information that was so easy to follow and understand and as someone who suffers terribly with my mental health I found it really useful.

Three points; The question on CBT is ambiguous, the two answers given are both correct. You must correct this because CBT is far more than just those two minimal domains. CBT is an extremely useful tool which can be used to resolve often crippling mental issues, linking both past and present, creating new pathways of thought which will benefit the user. Whilst CBT is a practice, it is not 'practical', a distinction ignored by whoever sets your questions. 0/10. Secondly, the question about 'job demands' and the subject 'overly pushing themselves' is at best, ignorant, at worst, highly dangerous. 0/10 I cannot emphasise this enough. this is highly dangerous. This subject is outside the remit of this limited-parameter course and should be left well alone. To state that an individual should ''work just outside my comfort zone' is irresponsible given iHasco does not know the variable mental health states of those undergoing this course. To suggest any course of action, especially this one is foolish and potentially highly dangerous, especially without qualification. My third point; Qualification. Any fool can develop a mental health awareness training course. To create a useful and meaningful course however takes skill, knowledge and ability underpinned by qualification. In this course, I see average knowledge, it's not a bad course overall but there are no qualifying statements. There are no references and iHasco unless a registered and approved provider of mental health training services is simply not qualified. Ordinarily this wouldn't matter in the case of say, fire training where most of the information can be obtained from official sources but mental health is not straightforward and I would offer, very much beyond the remit of iHasco when IHasco presumes to make definitive statements concerning the two examples I have given previously. Mental Health is a clinical matter and not one for a limited-scope training organisation. There should be awareness training but no specific or general advice or statements on methods or practice can ever be made. To offer those, iHasco would require qualification and certification. For iHasco to do so is irresponsible and foolish.
