Post-Secondary Student Mental Health Research Training Series

The Post-Secondary Student Mental Health Research Training module series has been co-designed with students, staff, and faculty researchers. Its purpose is to provide foundational knowledge and establish common language, competencies, and values for engaging in post-secondary student mental health research.

The series was developed with two complementary streams – the first stream is designed to advance student capacity in post-secondary mental health research and student engagement, and the second, to support staff and faculty to engage post-secondary students in numerous research roles.
