Alcohol EDU
The AlcoholEdu® program is an online, science-based course and is designed to teach you about the effects of alcohol on the body and mind, and to assist you in making safer and healthier decisions so you can avoid difficulty in the future.
Last year, 147 students enrolled in AlcoholEDU®. Of those students, 88% found the course helpful to them and 72% would recommend AlcoholEDU® to others.
The course has two sections, both of which must be completed:
· The first part of the course takes roughly 2.5 hours to complete, and it is recommended that you take it in multiple sittings. This section ends with the Exam and Survey 2. You must earn a grade of 80% or higher to pass and receive credit for the course. The deadline for finishing this section of the course will be assigned to you from either the Center for Alcohol and other Drug Education or the Office of Student Judicial Services.
· About one month after you complete the Exam and Survey 2, you will receive an email asking you to complete Chapter 4. This will give you time to process all the information you have learned and reflect on your behavior. The deadline to complete Chapter Four will be assigned to you from either the Center for Alcohol and other Drug Education or the Office of Student Judicial Services.
Please note that the course includes three surveys that measure students’ alcohol-related attitudes and behaviors. All survey responses are strictly confidential; GW will only receive information about the student body as whole and will never see individual students’ answers. You can feel confident that providing truthful answers – no matter what they are – will not put you at any risk for repercussions.
