SE&X course online pilot

ShineSA has decided to find a way to bring its courses to rural and remote south Australia. To this end SHineSA is going to pilot its Sexuality Exploration and Xpression (SE&X) course in a fully online environment. This is a course for youth workers, community health workers and others that work with young people at risk.

If you are a youth worker or community health worker and live in a rural or remote part of South Australia and would like to be part of this pilot, and have access to the internet then please contact Lud Allen at lud.allen@health.sa.gov.au

The course will consist of 12 sessions each approximately 3 hours long. You will be using your computer to interact with other course participants and the facilitators in REAL TIME. The course is designed to be interactive and fun as well as confronting and real.

The topics covered will be:

• attitudes to sexuality


• diversity


• homophobia


• what is sexual health


• assault and abuse


• STIs


• contraception


• anatomy and physiology


• working with young men


• working with young women


• negotiating sexual health needs


• sexual health counselling
  

The course consists of two units from the certificate IV Community Services and there is some offline componant involved.

We only have space for 8 participants in this pilot so PLEASE get in quick: All participants will be supported and given instruction on how to use the online classroom well before the pilot starts.

Hope to hear from you soon
