Opportunities for Students

These opportunities are designed for current post-secondary students who are interested in learning more about mental health and well-being, developing leadership skills, exploring professional development opportunities, or supporting their peers and campus communities.

These opportunities are open to students from all areas of study. Whether you’re interested in mental health, leadership, supporting your peers, or simply looking to build your knowledge and professional skills, there are opportunities for you.

The CICMH Student Ambassador Badge recognizes students who have demonstrated an ongoing commitment to learning about and supporting campus mental health. It is a professional development opportunity that can showcase your learning and involvement on your LinkedIn profile and resume.

To earn the CICMH Student Ambassador Badge, you must complete a combination of CICMH learning opportunities:

• Attend one live CICMH webinar
• Complete two CICMH e-learning courses, or complete one e-learning course and attend one CICMH Student event
• Follow CICMH on LinkedIn

You must also be currently enrolled at a Canadian post-secondary institution when you submit your information for the badge.

CICMH student presentations are educational information sessions that explore common experiences students may encounter during their post-secondary journey. They are designed to provide information, normalize conversations around mental health and well-being, and introduce practical ways of thinking about these topics.

Please note: These presentations are not counselling sessions and do not provide mental health treatment or individualized mental health advice.
