The Wellness Center offers a multitude of training options to build Wellness skills and knowledge for students, staff, and faculty. Our current training offerings include:
  • Green Dot Bystander training: This training is aimed at giving students, staff, and faculty experience in understanding what violence looks like, barriers to intervention, creative strategies catered to individual levels of comfort with intervening, and planning for community building around anti-violence.  
  • JED Foundation Suicide Prevention training: Available for students, staff, and faculty. This training focuses on building skills relating to intervening in situations where peers are exhibiting concerning behaviors to prevent suicide. It aims to decrease stigma around difficult conversations about mental health. 
  • Supporting Student Mental Wellness: This training is aimed at faculty and staff who have questions about how to identify a student struggling with their mental health and how to get them access to mental health resources. This training will go through how to check in with students, how to build a culture around mental wellness, and will describe different mental health resources available to UP students.  
  • Health and Wellness Resources Overview: This training can be given to students, staff, and faculty. It describes all available resources for UP students for health and wellness on campus, how to access them, and provides a space for answering questions relating to resource access. 
  • Choose Your Own Adventure:  Due to the close collaboration between the Student Health Center, the Counseling Center, and the Wellness Promotion team, we can come up with a training or talk based on your individual needs. If you or a group you belong to on campus have a specific wellness interest, reach out with what you are looking for and what your timeline is, and we can work out a training that suits your needs! 
To request a training, send an email to wellness@up.edu describing the training you are looking for, whether you are part of a group or are an individual, and you/your group’s general availability.
