Brief description of proposed project. (Be sure to remind me if this is to be online, blended, etc.)
This project is designed to help promote awareness of trauma and further educate instructors at University X of how to
support students who have experienced trauma. This will be done through the use of an online, self-paced training
course. The first module will seek to go over the definition of trauma and PTSD, typical signs of trauma and traumatic
responses, and how trauma can affect a students ability to learn in the classroom. It will also look to build instructor's
skills and abilities to employ trauma informed principles when working with students.

Terminal Objective: When given an end of training assessment, instructors will be able to define traumatic experiences
with at least 90% accuracy.
