Professional Learning Programs and Resources
With considerable experience in developing alcohol and other drugs teaching and learning programs, the team at EvolveCDT are applying this knowledge to youth vaping – a concerning and emerging public health issue.
Do you need to build your knowledge about what vapes are, why young people vape, the health harms from vaping, the legal position on vapes and vaping in Western Australia, and how you can support the young people you work with to make healthy choices?
Do you have questions about what content your students should be learning about vaping?
Do you need some assistance developing skill-based vaping education activities for your classroom?
Do you want to know more about how to embed vaping education into your whole school alcohol and other drugs education practice?
If you answered YES to any of these questions, it’s worth checking out our VapeAWARE suite of professional learning workshops, e-learning programs and resources.
