Feedback on this Occupational Stress Training
I work with clients suffering different levels of stress regularly, [but] there were things that I had not thought of. The coursework is in-depth, and although I didn’t need any support, I know it was there if it was needed. SL
I particularly enjoyed deciding how I would present the course to Mr Bloggs’ employees. Although I do not have an intention at the moment of working with groups, I found the concept of thinking about what I could do engaging, and it actually gave me a sense that I could do this (which is new!) DL
Good balance between information and exercises. Would highly recommend it – and already have. Dr HQ PhD
An excellent mix of text, exercises, and activities that kept me engaged. I particularly liked the supporting slide shows. I am also pleased that the course provides activity sheets that I can use with clients. SA
