This course is a must for anyone who is, has or wants to work on the front lines to assist others during a time of crisis or loss. Even if you think you know all the information provided it reinforces the validity of RAPID.

There is always something that you never know when you can use them. However, things really happen all the time. Knowing something is really helpful. That's why I would highly recommand this course to non-psy major students.

Although heavily/entirely focused on disaster response, this training is partially-applicable to general use in responding to those in need of psychological first aid. The course is well laid out and the lectures are great.

The information was helpful and validating. The delivery of the information seemed encroached by the need to boast personal success and establish prominence in academia. All in all, the material triumphed over its delivery.

The course was very helpful and interesting for me. A single case with how to proceed and how not to proceed in each step was very informative. The Quiz added my interest to be more attentive. It was a great experience.

It was such a nice opportunity to learn psychological first aid from George Everly. We have once again seen the importance of PFA in these difficult days as we have passed through a difficult process as the whole world.
