VolAware: QPR/QPR+
QPR/QPR+ Registration
The basic QPR training takes 60 minutes, and the QPR+ training takes approximately 90 minutes.
In QPR training, participants can expect to learn the warning signs for depression and suicidal ideation, how to ask someone if they are considering suicide and how and where to refer someone for help. In QPR+ training, participants receive all the training offered in the QPR training plus training on UT's protocol for helping distressed students.
