At the training class, teachers were imparted knowledge on counseling skills and psychological support for students by lecturers from Hanoi National University of Education, such as: early identification of signs of stress and psychological trauma in students; application of psychological first aid techniques and support tools according to each age group; close coordination with families and relevant parties to accompany students.

In particular, the training program focuses on equipping teachers with counseling skills for vulnerable groups of children, such as children with disabilities, ethnic minority children, and LGBT groups, ensuring the principle of "leaving no one behind".

The training course also provides time for teachers to discuss, share experiences, practice role-playing and analyze many real-life situations to improve skill effectiveness.

After the course, teachers will continue to share the knowledge they have acquired with their colleagues at school so that they can become a spiritual support for students.

In the context of children being under a lot of psychological pressure due to natural disasters, epidemics and social events, it is urgent that teachers be equipped with skills in counseling and providing psychological support for school. The knowledge and skills from the training course will be applied practically by teachers, contributing to building a safe, healthy and loving school environment.
