  • I'm glad to see that this course has current information, including the new 988 mental health hotline number that was just created in the last year.

  • I am glad I ran across this resource. Wonderful content, easy to use, informative, and evidence based. I learned a lot in 5 hours. I will take courses again!

  • I stumbled upon PLB while I was looking for something that would help me fulfill my suicide prevention course and I am pleasantly surprised. This course was economical, easy to use, and exactly what I needed.

  • This course was very easy to access and is helping me collect the needed renewal clock hours in Minnesota. Some of the content was new and more depth than typical in-service so that was much appreciated!

  • I had taken a suicide prevention class earlier in the year; but your class offered additional ideas and a different perspective. I enjoyed this class and will take away many concrete ideas offered here. Thank you!
    Shannon S.
  • Thoughtful, clear, and direct information. Teaching strategies were excellent. Very worthwhile experience.

  • I really liked the piece of this course where it gave examples on how to talk with our students during these traumatic instances such as suicide and/ or death/attempted. As had as these situations and emotions are for our students, they are equally just as hard for educators. Therefore, I feel better informed on ways to deal with and help my students if need be during situations such as suicide! I highly recommend this course and will definitely share this with my co-workers and administration! Thank you!

  • Really enjoyed a rather unenjoyable topic- material was informative, straight-forward and completely user friendly.
    April B.
  • There were excellent resources in this course! The community-building lessons were wonderful ideas, and I will find ways to use them in the future. Everything I learned here aligned with what I previously knew about mental health, and I learned many new terms and strategies during this course.

  • I liked the way the course was organized. Very easy to follow. I really liked that I could see the scope and sequence of the course and the progress I was making as I moved through it. It had a lot of new information that I had not been taught before. Overall, a great continuing ed experience. I love that it is offered online as it meets my needs for flexibility as I try to balance work and family commitments. It seemed very unnecessary to have to go to a specific location (rarely close to where I lived) for an entire day to take a course like this when we can do it more conveniently online. Thank you for offering!
    Christine M.
  • I appreciated the sections on how to handle suicide attempts. I have experienced 3 of these in the classroom, and because of that, I have pursued more learning on this topic on my own time.
    Linda O.
  • Very informative class. I would suggest this class for any educator with at-risk students.
    Paula F.
  • This class was fantastic and the program was so easy to use. I will be spreading the news about this great resource!
