Learning Resilience

Social and emotional learning (SEL) is about developing the ability to care for others, make responsible decisions, establish positive relationships, and handle challenging situations. These skills are essential for developing resilience and the personal attributes that promote wellness, prevent illness and support recovery.

Modules in this domain will provide educators with an in-depth understanding of SEL and why it's important for mental health and wellbeing. Further, they will provide educators with an understanding of how to intentionally teach SEL skills, and foster resilience in education settings.

It will cover key skills for resilience, respectful relationships, and help-seeking. The modules will also address how to create an empowering environment for children and young people to foster independence and responsibility in everyday learning contexts, experiences and activities.

Accreditation and endorsement 

All registered teachers in every state and territory must ensure they have added their teacher registration number and state/territory 
to the My Profile page.

The NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) is reviewing its process for endorsing professional development providers and courses. As part of this, NESA is not accrediting any professional development providers, including Be You, as of 30 November 2020. 

Be You will reapply for accreditation with NESA in early 2021, once NESA has outlined the new accreditation application process. 

For more information on logging Be You Professional Learning activities with NESA, please see this Be You FAQ: Can I use Be You Professional Learning to support my professional development requirements as a teacher?.
