Faculty and staff are often in an ideal position to recognize when someone is struggling emotionally and may need help.
Kognito’s At-Risk Mental Health for Faculty and Staff is an online simulation that lets you practice conversations with a virtual student, so you’ll know what to say in real life. WVU is making this program available to all members of the WVU community — faculty, staff and students — to help create a safer and more supportive campus.
Kognito's training module takes approximately 30-45 minutes to complete and you can pause the training if necessary. Simply log back in and pick up where you left off.
Faculty and staff can also apply this training to the hours needed for the emotional wellbeing badge.
