About this Event

About ASIST
ASIST (Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training) is an internationally recognised, evidence-based workshop designed to help participants respond with confidence and compassion to people at risk of suicide. Over two days, you’ll learn how to recognise warning signs, engage someone in crisis, and work together to build a plan that ensures their immediate safety.

What you’ll gain

Practical, evidence-based intervention skills for responding to suicidal thoughts or behaviour
Confidence in having open, safe conversations about suicide
Tools to develop a personalised safety plan in collaboration with the person at risk
Techniques to connect individuals to ongoing support and community resources
A deeper understanding of what someone in crisis needs from others in order to stay safe and seek help

Why ASIST?
Participants consistently describe ASIST as life-changing — both personally and professionally. You’ll leave the course equipped with the skills to recognise when someone needs help, the language to reach out, and the confidence to make a difference.
