Updated suicide prevention training offered for faculty and staff

A new online training — “Faculty and Staff Suicide Prevention Training: Recognize, Respond, Refer” — is now available for all UWM faculty and staff, through this Canvas enrollment link.

This new version includes updated and additional data, guidance and UWM-specific resources for you to better support student mental health on campus. We encourage you to enroll in the training and share this information with your unit or department.

The training, offered by the UWM Student Health and Wellness Center (SHAW),  is designed for anyone who advises, teaches, supervises or supports students. This training, which takes about an hour, is one way to better support UWM students.

After completing the online training, a Part 2 Discussion Session is available to those interested in furthering their training in suicide prevention. Find more information on SHAW’s Suicide Prevention Training page.
