This training will introduce the Academic Resilience Approach which has been developed by boingboing and YoungMinds. In this context, resilience is described as a person 'doing better than might be expected in a context of adversity'.

Attendees will discover how engaging in the Academic Resilience Approach enables education institutions to develop and implement individualised processes to ensure all students have a greater chance of developing resilience against life’s adversity, whilst also celebrating areas of existing strength.

The training will introduce the theory behind the Academic Resilience Approach and how schools and colleges can get involved.
