Crisis Intervention Course
The Counseling Psychology Department offers a three credit undergraduate/graduate
split course in crisis intervention (CPSY 410/510). The course is
offered during Fall and Spring terms only and is taught by the graduate
student who is serving as the University of Oregon Crisis Center
Director. This course provides students with the opportunity to
learn both theory and practical skills in crisis intervention. Experiential
learning through role-playing and group exercises supplement lecture
and class discussion. Students taking this course need to be prepared
to practice the crisis intervention skills and techniques taught
each week in small group role-play situations. Attendance is mandatory
and the course is typically offered in a three hour evening block.
This is a popular course, particularly during Fall quarter, so sign
up early! If you have any questions, feel free to call the
Crisis Center business line at 346-4487.
This course serves as a pre-requisite for training to work on the
University of Oregon Crisis Line. Interested students who have taken
this class still need to be selected through a screening process.
Upon passing the screening, the student will be trained to work
on the Crisis Line.
