Free Mental Health First Aid Training Offered at Shoreline Community College!

Shoreline Community College Counseling Center is offering free Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) training for our campus community. MHFA is a research-supported international education program developed to teach adults how to recognize and respond to signs and symptoms of mental health and substance use challenges. MHFA is a skills-based course that gives people the tools to assist someone who might be struggling with mental health or substance use challenges and connect them with appropriate support and resources. To date, 2.5 million people across the United States have been trained in MHFA.

Just as CPR helps those without clinical training assist an individual having a heart attack, MHFA prepares participants to interact with a person experiencing a mental health crisis. Mental Health First Aiders learn a 5-step Action Plan that guides them through reaching out and offering appropriate support.

With support from the Counseling Center, this training (valued at $170.00/participant) is FREE to Shoreline Community College employees and students.

Training Details:

We are currently offering a blended training which includes:

  • 2-hour, self-paced online training prior to the in-person training and
  • 6.5 hour in-person training

This quarter’s in-person training is scheduled for:

Friday, March 15th, 9:00am-3:30pm

The self-paced online training must be completed prior to attending the in-person training.  You must complete the online and in-person training to become a certified Mental Health First Aider. MHFA certification lasts for 3 years.

Please email Gwyn Hoffman-Robinson at gehoffman@shoreline.edu to register and/or find out more information. Please note registration is limited and a waiting list will be started when capacity is reached. Once registered, details as far as room location, etc. will be shared.

Dear Students,

This is a reminder that the security questions option for ctcLink multi-factor authentication (MFA) is set to be discontinued this Friday, February 16th.  If you currently use the security questions for your ctcLink MFA access, please make sure to log on and set up an alternate MFA option before Friday.  You can view the original message below. 

Original Message:

We have received a communication from the State Board of Community and Technical Colleges (SBCTC) of some system wide changes to the ctcLink Multi-factor authentication (MFA) process for all users.

To enhance ctcLink cybersecurity and to ensure the confidentiality and security of nonpublic personal information, the option to establish security questions is being removed for all students and employees statewide.  It has been found that the option for using security questions does not provide an adequate level of additional security for which MFA was designed. This change is currently set to take place on February 16th, 2024.

We understand this may be an inconvenience for those who have chosen this MFA option. TSS, the local security administrators, and business analysts will do all we can to assist in this process, however this is a mandate from the State in which we must comply.  For everyone currently using the security questions as their MFA option, we are strongly recommending going into your ctcLink account and selecting an alternative method prior to the statewide change occurring on February 16th.  For further instructions on how to make this change, please see the following instructions here. We thank you for your attention to this important matter.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to support@shoreline.edu

Thank you.
