Parking in Lot 6

For those teacher candidates whose parking pass for Lot 6 has expired, you have a  few options. The lot has two kiosks where you can pay for up to 8 hours of parking. You may also choose to use the city's parking app in order to pay during these last few days before placement, when your monthly permit has expired. Information about the app and how to use it can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAtJYieT3XA

This means that none of our students need to be at risk of getting a parking ticket. Please share this information with your cohorts!

Placement Survival Guide (Session)

For all YEAR 1 (of 2 Year B.Ed) and 1 Year B.Ed students, we are organizing a Placement Survival Guide brought to you by 2nd year and Masters of Education students.

SafeTALK Workshop

SafeTALK is a well-recognized alertness training program that prepares anyone 15 or older, regardless of prior experience or training, to become a suicide-alert helper. Most people with thoughts of suicide don’t truly want to die, but are struggling with the pain in their lives. Through their words and actions, they invite help to stay alive. safeTALK-trained helpers can recognize these invitations and take action by connecting them with life-saving intervention resources, such as caregivers trained in ASIST.

Since its development in 2006, safeTALK has been used in over 20 countries around the world, and more than 200 selectable video vignettes have been produced to tailor the program’s audio-visual component for diverse audiences. safeTALK-trained helpers are an important part of suicide-safer communities, working alongside intervention resources to identify and avert suicide risks.

This workshop is limited to the first 30 participants registered.  The fee includes a participant pack with various resources, as well as a certificate of completion for the course.
