Become a Peer Health Educator

 

Recruitment for the Peer Health Educator program begins in January with a series of information sessions.

What happens once I am accepted into the Peer Health Educator program?

Once you are accepted into the Peer Health Educator program, your next step is to take Health Education 250: Health of the College Student, offered only in Spring quarter. This course explores the philosophy of Prevention and Wellness Services and its approach to the health issues that college students experience. Following your successful completion of the course, you will be assigned to a specific topic group (e.g., CPR/First Aid). Just before Fall quarter, you will be required to participate in an intensive and extensive training session to prepare you for your work as a Peer Health Educator. The training session involves discussion, lecture, facilitation, role-playing, and presentation.
