TESTIMONIALS
Sexual violence services have long been committed to prevention education and shifting social norms in the effort to help stop sexual violence before it starts. The Shift to Learn E-Learning Modules are a resource for research informed training and professional development that helps to ground and re-orient us in the concepts of primary prevention and the root causes and drivers of violence, while providing us with some insight and tools for examining power, privilege and how we see the world emotionally, socially, and politically.

Domestic violence prevention is a new content area for myself and I found the self-paced modules easy to navigate while also being engaging and thought provoking. It further built upon my foundational understandings and guided me to more self-directed learning with the resources that were provided. I found much value in the Going Upstream: Understanding Root Causes that Stop Violence Before It Starts - Shift to Learn and Understanding Public Policy to Support a Primary Prevention Framework - Shift to Learn modules and plan to recommend the series of modules to colleagues and partners. Again thank you for this opportunity and I look forward to continuing my learning in this area.

I completed all five modules and enjoyed my engagement with each module. I strongly recommend Module: Changing Us First, To Change The Root Causes Of Violence, which is truly an eye opener for conceptualizing privilege and awakening us to understand where we, our clients and our community could lie. The modules could be a starting point and, of course, not late if we want to contribute to the primary prevention of domestic or sexual violence. The modules will prepare us to learn, think and act critically in the primary prevention of domestic or sexual violence. The modules guided me holistically and inspired me further to contribute to the field. I appreciate everyone facilitating this module and helping me navigate the domestic violence prevention efforts. I am glad I did not wait a second to explore the courses.
