How long will the course take to complete?
The Student Wellbeing Ambassador Programme (SWAP) can be completed in any time frame that fits with your needs, from one day to six months. It comprises six lessons which can be completed at any time, with a total of around four hours of learning.
How long will each lesson take to complete?
There are 6 lessons. The time to complete each lesson will vary, but generally they take students around 40 minutes. To give you an idea, this is what each lesson involves:
- 3 videos of 3-6 minutes each
- 3 pieces of research to read
- 3 short quizzes about the videos and research
- A short exercise to try out one of the techniques from the videos (eg, thought logs, breathing exercises, etc)
- A download to use for the subsequent week (lesson one is a sleep diary)
- A campaign page where students are encouraged to think about how they will start sharing their new wellbeing expertise with others
- A final lesson quiz, the successful completion of which means that students can download the lesson certificate, which is actually a set of notes so they have something to remember what they’ve learned.
