Higher Education Center Training Services
The Higher Education Center provides a variety of training opportunities in alcohol and other drug abuse and violence (AODV) prevention. The Center’s core training program—the training progression—allows teams composed of campus representatives and community leaders to work together and learn best practices for coalition-based environmental management approaches to prevention. In addition to its training progression, the Center conducts a variety of training modules targeting specific topics in AODV prevention. Together, the training programs provide an integrated series of opportunities for campus and community teams to learn about and plan to create cultural change. These are not “talking heads” trainings, but are highly interactive and focused on skill-building so that participants can apply the principles and move to action immediately.
Statement of Training Philosophy
For campuses to change the environment that affects AOD abuse and violence
among students, they must engage in broad-based change at the institutional,
community, and public-policy levels. The Center’s trainings are facilitated
opportunities for teams to think through the AODV problems of their campus
and community environment, and to learn about a planning process that will
support them in moving to action. More...
