This training supplements existing modules for healthcare providers working with individuals experiencing suicidal thoughts (https://sp-reflex.zelfmoord1813.be/e-learning). Specific information on working with men will be added: * Information on suicidality among men and the importance of gender-sensitive care. * Guidance on recognizing signs of suicidality in men and understanding gender differences in suicide-related communication. * Insights into the impact of gender norms and socialization on suicidality and help-seeking behavior in men experiencing suicidal thoughts. * Awareness of providers' own gender biases and the influence of societal gender norms in treating men with suicidal ideation. * Recommendations for engaging men in treatment, with specific guidance on language and approaches for interacting with men who have suicidal thoughts. Additionally, the e-learning will a model psychoeducation about the role of norms for men experiencing suicidal ideation.
