What Our Clients Say
"LivingWorks ASIST training has been the most significant and practical training I have ever received for my job as an educator of young people."
Michael
Deputy School Principal, NSW
"We are the first point of contact with our vulnerable children. If we learn these skills as a collective, we are supporting a whole generation of children to manage these feelings and seek the necessary help that they and we deserve."
Kirstyn
Teacher and Mother of four
"As a long time family violence worker, I’ve been lucky enough to attend two ASIST trainings. The value of learning these skills can not be overstated, for both your professional and personal lives. We all look at the horrifying statistics and wonder what can be done - undertaking training in suicide first aid so that more people in our communities have the skills and confidence to support others is part of the answer."
ASIST Participant
Queensland
"I currently work in mental health as a manager with 6 employees under me.I have utilised my skill set in ASIST regularly with my client work and find it has provided me a framework of how best to manage suicidal ideation and focus on turning points. I now recommend it as a must for all my staff to train in and am quite impressed when I see it on people’s resumes as I know they will have a competence in responding to crisis. This training is brilliant and helpful for anyone who completes it"
