ARUCAD Holds Training on Supporting Student Wellbeing

Arkin University of Creative Arts and Design (ARUCAD) held a training session titled “A Shared Responsibility for Student Wellbeing: Recognise, Support, Refer” on 9 October 2026. Clinical Psychologist Simge Altınkök Koçar delivered the session to the university’s academic and administrative staff.

The session covered how to recognise signs that a student may need help, communicate supportively and refer students to appropriate sources of support when needed. Koçar discussed the role academic and administrative staff play through their day-to-day interactions with students.

The training highlighted student wellbeing as a shared responsibility across the university community and focused on how staff can help students access support when they need it.
