"I highly recommend this course."
I was so pleased to find and complete this course. A Carer for a 23 years old son diagnosed with schizophrenia and twice sectioned, it brought together existing knowledge but then in greater depth and breadth. I appreciated the different learning styles. The section on Recovery I found particularly interesting as it helped me reflect on my own fear for my son’s future and its possibilities. I highly recommend this course.

"...a sense of community."
This was an informative course for patients, families, carers and professionals to raise their understanding of psychosis and schizophrenia and it’s impact. The course material was well laid out with links to additional materials. In addition to this the learners shared their own personal experiences of having psychosis or supporting psychosis which gave a sense of community. The pace of the course was dictated by the learner which was very helpful and could be fitted into their own schedule.
