SUMMARY:Mental Health First Aid (In-Person)
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Institute for Education in Healthcare on 3/14/2025 from 8:00am – 4:00 pm on the RIC campus as we join with our colleagues from the Bradley Learning Exchange for this in-person training.  \n\n\n\nMental Health First Aid for Adults is an eight-hour course that gives people the skills to help someone who is developing a mental health problem or experiencing a mental health crisis. The evidence behind the program demonstrates that it does build mental health literacy\, helping the public identify\, understand\, and respond to signs of mental illness. Trainees are taught how to apply the five-step action plan in a variety of situations such as helping someone through a panic attack\, engaging with someone who may be suicidal\, or assisting an individual who has overdosed. An important component of the mental health first aid course is the opportunity to practice the intervention strategy rather than to just learn about it. This simple experience can make it easier to actually apply the knowledge in a real-life situation. \n\n\n\n Certificates of completion will be provided to participants after the training.  \n\n\n\n\nRegister

SUMMARY:Autism Thinking (Online)
DESCRIPTION:Autism Thinking: Understanding the Core Challenges of ASD and How to Support an Individual Across the Day \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease join Rhode Island College’s Institute for Education in Healthcare on 5/7/25 from 9:00am – 10:30 am with our colleagues from the Bradley Learning Exchange for this online training. \n\n\n\n“Autism Thinking” is designed to inform participants of the neurodevelopmental characteristics of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Topics include\, but are not limited to: Executive Functioning\, Context Blindness\, Theory of Mind\, Central Coherence\, Joint Attention\, and One-Channel Processing. An understanding of these characteristics and challenges arms participants with the knowledge required to support individuals with ASD in their daily lives (in the classroom\, in the home\, or in the community). This presentation ends with a discussion of the methods used to support individuals with ASD. These practical tools and strategies will help participants be proactive and confident in their efforts to support individuals with autism in a variety of settings. \n\n\n\nZoom link will be sent 1 day before the class. \n\n\n\n\nRegister
