Veterans on Campus Training

Welcome to Veterans on Campus – Faculty and Staff Only

All Southeastern Louisiana University faculty and staff are invited to participate in training related to military cultural competence and supporting military and veteran students on campus. Veterans on Campus is an interactive role-play simulation that builds understanding and appreciation of the challenges faced by student veterans. In the simulation, learners assume the role of a faculty or staff member and talk with three virtual student veterans struggling to adjust to college life, trying different approaches to see what works best. The learning objectives of the Veterans on Campus training are:

  • Understand common challenges facing student veterans transitioning to campus life
  • Manage classroom discussions around sensitive issues to veterans
  • Recognize and approach student veterans struggling to adjust to college life to discuss concerns
  • Inform and connect students struggling to adjust to on- and off-campus support services

Faculty and staff who complete the online Veterans on Campus training will receive a certificate of completion and qualify to receive Southeastern’s “Green Zone” training recognition. This includes a military-friendly “Green Zone” badge (decal) and a digital version of the badge. Faculty and staff will also receive a Military Challenge Coin minted specifically for Southeastern Louisiana University.

Please send your completion certificate email to [email protected] to receive the badge and challenge coin.
