Virtual training for Spring 2023

We are excited to offer staff and faculty a 1-day skills-based training course designed to teach members of the UMBC community how to:
- recognize signs of mental health or substance use disorders.
- identify community resources.
- link people in crisis to the proper resources.
The course will consist of a 2-hour self-paced introduction course online (completed independently before the course), followed by a 7-hour virtual skills session with Mental Health First Aid instructors. You will learn a 5-step action plan and practice applying it throughout the skills section of the course.
