Session overview

This session explores how RTO staff can respond to student distress appropriately and confidently using the Notice → Ask → Respond framework, while maintaining clear professional boundaries.

Drawing on DEWR guidance on student mental health and wellbeing, the session will consider early warning signs, cohort-informed approaches, escalation pathways, and the importance of staff wellbeing when supporting students experiencing distress.
