Level 2 Award in Suicide Awareness

The Suicide Awareness Level 2 webinar is a three-hour training program that aims to raise awareness and understanding of suicide, examine personal and societal attitudes towards suicide and equip participants with the skills to offer help to those affected by suicide. The primary goal of the webinar is to reduce the stigma surrounding suicide, increase awareness of the issue, and empower individuals to support those who may be at risk of suicide.

During the webinar, participants will learn about the different types of suicidal behaviour, their causes, and risk factors. The webinar will also cover how to offer support to someone who may be at risk of suicide, and respond appropriately in a crisis. Participants will also explore personal and societal attitudes towards suicide and learn how to approach the issue with empathy and understanding.

The Suicide Awareness Level 2 webinar is suitable for healthcare professionals, support workers, caregivers, and anyone interested in learning more about suicide and how to offer help to those affected by it. Upon completion of the webinar, successful candidates will be issued with a certificate that is valid for three years. This certificate demonstrates their understanding of suicide and their ability to offer support to individuals who may be at risk of suicide in their daily lives.
