CTRC1 - Intro to Trauma & Trauma-Informed Sensitive Practices
Intro to Trauma and Trauma-Informed Sensitive Practices
Designed for teachers, administrators and those who work with our youth, this introductory course is the first in the Trauma-Informed/Sensitive Pedagogies and Practices Microcertificate.
The words trauma, trauma-informed, trauma-sensitive, well-being, mental health and resilience are commonly and frequently being heard in many contexts, specifically in education. But what they mean, how they get taken up and what can be done are less explored.
Seek to support your growing understanding of trauma and how it affects your life and the lives of children/youth in schools. Each week will examine and inquire into foundational knowledge for those who work alongside children in order to support the shaping of trauma-sensitive spaces, interactions and practices.
Gain foundational knowledge with practical applications to support your personal and professional growth, which in turn supports the young people you strive to support. This course provides educators with access to current research and practical ideas to create and nurture safety and resilience for all on school landscapes.
