The CAPS workshops provided students experiential learning to increase their knowledge of their psychological health and teach coping strategies to promote healthier lifestyles. Ten CAPS workshops were offered in the 19/20 AY and 74 students completed the in-person written evaluation yielding at 61% response rate. Student responses indicated high levels of satisfaction. Indirect and direct responses confirmed the two anticipated learning outcomes were met. The learning outcomes measured were: 1) students who participated in a wellbeing workshop will gain understanding of the wellbeing topic presented and will list the specific knowledge gained; 2) students will learn helpful strategies to deal with the topic, and will state strategies they plan to use. The evaluation findings supported the continuation of CAPS workshop offerings through virtual modalities and offering them on-demand through recordings in the newly developed CAPS YouTube page. Analysis of the YouTube viewing data has led to changes in programming to better respond to student needs.
