Get Inclusive Educational Modules

What are the Educational Modules?

Vector Solutions is an online prevention and compliance training course that first year students must take in order to attend Wentworth. The course educates around Identities and Inclusion, Sexual Assault Prevention, and Alcohol and Other Drugs. Students will need to complete all three sections to complete this requirement. 

Identity and Inclusion- By understanding the impact of actions, learners will build motivation to intervene in situations of bias. By the end of this module, learners will have a deeper understanding of social identities, as well as concepts like implicit bias, stereotypes, and microaggressions. Students will learn how to play a role in creating a safe and inclusive environment for our friends, peers, and classmates 

Sexual Assault Prevention- This section helps build academic communities of engaged bystanders who can identify harmful situations, and have the motivation and skills needed to intervene. With a focus on self-reflection and concept application, it weaves bystander engagement and intervention into the training.

Alcohol and Other Drugs- This section seeks to increase help-seeking and active bystander behaviors by increasing student knowledge and confidence when it comes to understanding risk factors, identifying risky behaviors, exploring their personal motivations for making good choices, and learning how to stick to boundaries that better choices.

Requirements

Completion of all three sections in the training module is required.
