Certified Peer Educator Training
In order to maximize the professional development, support and resources available to peer educators on our campus, the Mentoring for All initiative has developed and acquired NASPA’s Certified Peer Educator Training for all students involved in various peer educator roles.
This training opportunity emphasizes and is geared towards students participating in a peer mentor, peer coach, or peer guide role. If your program has required you to complete this training as part of your student position training, you are in the right place! Please see below for information on the registration process, upcoming sessions, and receiving your certificate.
