CICMH Courses

The Centre for Innovation in Campus Mental Health has developed these short self-paced modules to support the mental health and well-being of post-secondary students. While they are geared towards students, everyone is welcome to take them.

Improving Your Rest and Sleep

According to a 2020 paper on sleep quality during the Covid-19 pandemic, during isolation 66.8% of Canadians reported poor quality of sleep and 39.2% reported clinical insomnia. These findings illustrate the poor state of rest and sleep in Canada and highlight the importance of learning rest and sleep skills.

By participating in this module, you will:

  • Understand how rest and sleep are related to your mental health.
  • Learn to use tips and tools for better rest and sleep.
  • Appreciate your relationship to rest and sleep.

Transitioning to the Workforce

The transition from post-secondary education to the workforce marks a key milestone for many students as it can signify an entrance to “adulthood”. However, most post-secondary students do not feel prepared to transition out of school, as they often do not perceive themselves as being an “adult,” feel frustrated or unprepared, and have low self-efficacy. This leads to feelings of stress, anxiety, depression, loss or grief as they enter a new social identity. By participating in this module, students will be able to:

  • Identify some of the challenges that arise during the transition after graduation
  • Learn the strategies that could be used to manage those challenges
  • Navigate the resources within the community for a smoother transition
