Documentation:Distance Learning Support/Learners in Crisis

Learners in Crisis

Instructors are often the first to become aware of a learner in crisis. This may take the form of a disclosure in an email, disturbing remarks online, or in the context of an assignment.

Counselling Services are available for distance learners. UBC counsellors prefer to work directly with the instructor (or staff member) who is in contact with the student - to facilitate the referral.

If you are concerned about a student's behavior, contact Counselling Services for advice and support: 604-822-3811.
