Let’s Talk Suicide: Raising Awareness & Supporting Students (1 hour to 1.5 hours)

In this workshop, we will explore the factors that influence student behaviour; share best practices for creating a climate conducive to prosocial behaviour; discuss behaviour management strategies; and review BCIT processes, policies, and procedures which support staff, faculty and students to create a respectful work and learning environment. This workshop will also help participants gain skills in responding to challenging behaviour.

Academic Integrity (45 minutes to 1 hour)

In this workshop, we will explore factors which influence students’ academic integrity and share best practices and resources for proactively advancing academic integrity in the classroom.
