Intro

It’s essential that every student completes our Consent Matters training, to understand issues surrounding sexual consent and healthy relationships, so that we can work together to keep our community safe and create an environment where everyone feels respected and supported.

This short online course will help you to recognise boundaries and support your friends. There are three modules to complete at a time that works for you: 

  • Thinking about consent
  • Communication skills and relationships
  • Looking out for others

The course will show you what consent looks and sounds like; how you can clearly communicate what you want; when consent can be given and when it can’t; how and when you might step into a situation when consent is not present.

Complete the Consent Matters training on Moodle now. If you’re not taken straight to the Consent Matters page, you can find it under Getting Ready to Learn, Essential Courses.
