The (CSPV) is making it easier for CU students, faculty and staff members to access its Warning Signs for Violence and Strategies for Upstander Reporting course through a SkillSoft course that launched online this fall.

The course, which covers topics such as how to recognize concerning behavior and create a culture that is supportive of upstander reporting, includes scenarios that help participants put their knowledge into practice. The virtual, text-based course takes about 35 to 40 minutes to complete.

Concerning behaviors can include escalating anger, unmanaged depression or isolation, changes in appearance, aggression, talk of being bullied and suicidal ideation or self-harm.

Sarah Goodrum, research professor with CSPV, said knowing the warning signs for violence is an important first step. 鈥淩ecognizing the concerning behaviors that can precede violent attacks can create opportunities for intervention and prevention, if they are also supported by a culture of upstander reporting,鈥� she said.听

Upstanders are people who take steps to report safety-related concerns, and these upstanders鈥� tips can help avert violence.

A conducted by the National Policing Institute in 2021 found that in most cases it鈥檚 peers who relay the information about a potential attack that prevents violence. Goodrum said one of the goals of the online course is to share knowledge so more people know what these warning signs look like, and how they should relay them to people who can help.

鈥淛ust like the warning signs for any other health or wellness issue, such as cancer, heart disease or suicide, we should all know what the warning signs for violence look like and what to do when we see them,鈥� Goodrum said, adding, 鈥淲e need to know the signs and then report them to people who can help.鈥�

The online course points to available resources, which include Colorado鈥檚 Safe2Tell tip line ( and Don鈥檛 Ignore It websites for details). After completing this course, participants should be able to identify the warning signs for violence and methods for reporting safety-related concerns, as well as describe strategies for being an upstander.

The training is supported by grants from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the Colorado Department of Public Safety, and builds upon CSPV鈥檚 ongoing efforts to enhance the university鈥檚 framework for violence prevention with ongoing support from the 兔子先生传媒文化作品 Police Department.听
