Faculty and staff Gatekeeper Trainings for spring 2025
Faculty and staff are encouraged to take advantage of an excellent training opportunity that could help save a life. As a five-year initiative of the QEP, we aim to have 50% of all faculty and staff trained in a gatekeeper/suicide prevention program by the end of Year 5 (2029). Question Persuade Refer is an evidence-based, nationally recognized training appropriate for all adults to learn techniques and language to intervene in a crisis. You can learn more about the training on the QPR Institute website.
We will offer two open trainings for faculty and staff in the spring: Friday, Feb. 7, at 2 p.m. and Tuesday, March 18, at 10 a.m. Sign up for one of the sessions here: https://forms.office.com/r/QvSnTDqxZj.
If you would like to organize a training for your department, committee or group, please e-mail QPR@gcsu.edu.
