Project Summary

This project will enhance sustainability and fidelity of delivery of the Self & Collective Care Series, a set of modules delivered through the UBC-Vancouver Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program. This series of modules is designed to support student wellbeing and resilience, reflective practice, and belonging. The goals of this small TLEF project include developing train-the-trainer materials (e.g. facilitation guides, presentation materials, training videos), creating an online platform for these resources, and evaluating the efficacy and impact of this facilitator training program on quality of delivery and student learning.

The long-term goal is to expand this Series across UBC programs, particularly in high-intensity fields such as health professional programs, among others. Our project aligns with TLEF criteria by focusing on supporting student resilience and academic success through social connection and skill development; it has been developed with student input throughout.
