CPD workshop: Positive Health

CPD workshop: Positive Health Breakfast

Description workshop

After some turbulent times, it is valuable to reflect on our own health and well-being. We will tackle questions such as: Which elements influence health? What is most important to you in life regarding your health and well-being? Thereafter, a translation will be made into practice: how can we as professionals contribute to the resilience and personal and professional development of our students? This training will introduce the basic principles of Positive Health and how to apply these principles in your work with students. The sessions consist of theory, self-reflection and practical exercises.

After following this workshop, you are able to:

  • Take a broader look at your own health and well-being and of the student,
  • Gain insight into the student’s resilience,
  • Take on a coaching role when talking with students about resilience and positive health,
  • Guide students to further develop their resilience and health,
  • Guide students how to take control in dealing with the physical, emotional and social challenges in life.

This activity may count towards your Continuing Professional Development (CPD) if relevant to your situation.

About the trainers

In these challenging times, student mental health has never been more important. Students might not always have the required skills yet to overcome the challenges they are faced with. Therefore the UM Psychologists and the UM Wellbeing Movement strive to make students more resilient and provide them with sufficient means to acquire skills that promote wellbeing during their studies and further in their professional career and life. At UM, there are many initiatives, programmes and plans that can contribute to student wellbeing and at the end of this workshop we will provide you with an introduction and overview of these ventures. Already interested? A broad range of (online) lectures, workshops and training sessions have been developed for students to develop themselves personally and professionally. Check out the complete offer: www.maastrichtuniversity.nl/student-wellbeing
