This one-day certification course teaches research-based practices to assess, intervene, and manage suicide risk for students, both on campus and virtually. Using NABITA’s Non-Clinical Assessment of Suicide (NAS) tool, participants will learn how to triage the overall risk for suicide an individual poses. The tool relies on risk and protective factors to help non-clinical professionals conduct assessments.
NABITA’s expert faculty members will train participants in how to identify an individual who may be experiencing suicidal ideation, strategies for asking about suicide in a one-on-one appointment, and in-depth application of NAS as a suicide assessment tool. Additionally, participants will learn how to make an effective referral to clinical mental health services and deploy appropriate interventions based on the level of risk assessed using NAS.
