I attended the Advanced group Crisis Intervention course earlier this year and experienced clear teaching from a knowledgeable presenter with marvellous time management skills and a sense of humour. The course ranged from interesting to downright fascinating and I really appreciated the opportunities to take part in exercises that challenged me to put theory into practice. Well worth attending!

I attended the ACGI course in March 2012 which was run by the International CISM trainer. The content covered was largely a refresher for me having done many CI’s already, however, it did broaden my understanding of why we respond to call outs as we do and why what we do works. I did get a chance to practice responding to scenarios where large groups were impacted by an event. The content covered and the course materials provided were excellent. Overall the training was invaluable and has improved I believe my ability to meet the needs of our CI clients.
