A wonderful course with clear explanations and case scenarios to help reinforce learning. I was truly engaged throughout the course and felt like I learned a lot more than I anticipated when going in.

Great course! Digestible material, simulation videos put material in context, & straight-forward quizzes. Would be interested in a course that dives even deeper into the topic.

I think it is important to see how to, and how not to do, psychological first aid. The videos were good, the lectures appropriately paced and i liked the note-taking side bar.

For me, this course was very much above average. I am overly empathetic and I'm hoping that I've learned to assess a difficult situation without becoming emotionally involved.

El contenido es enriquecedor. Me ayudará a tener una visión y conducta más acertada cuando me encuentre en una situación en la que se requieran primeros auxilios psicológicos.

A very informative course with easy to follow slides. the best part is the simulation activities which help you realize what to do and what not to do instead of preaching it.
