Mental Health Training
Old Dominion University has adopted an online conversation simulation, At-Risk for Faculty & Staff. Learn to notice signs of distress, use techniques to discuss our concerns, and, if necessary, refer students to appropriate resources.
At-Risk for Faculty & Staff lets you practice these challenging conversations at your own pace through role-play with virtual students. In a national study of effectiveness, this simulation has been shown to increase the number of student referrals to counseling. It is also listed in the Suicide Prevention Resource Center’s Best Practices Registry and under review for inclusion in the National Registry of Evidence-based Programs and Practices.
