As part of our comprehensive alcohol prevention program the University of Miami is asking each member of the first-year class to complete AlcoholEdu for College - an online, non-opinionated alcohol prevention program. Used on over 500 campuses nationwide, the course uses science-based research to educate students about alcohol and its effects. Whether you drink or not, AlcoholEdu for College will empower you to make well-informed decisions about alcohol and help you better cope with the drinking behavior of your peers.
The course has two sections,
both of which must be
completed to fulfill this requirement:
-
You may access the course beginning July 18, 2012
-
You will need to complete Part 1 (approximately 1.5-2.5 hours) by August 14, 2012.
-
Approximately 45 days later, you will receive an automated email asking you to complete the course. At this time, you will need to log in again to complete Part 2 which takes approximately 15 minutes.
We require every new incoming University of Miami student to complete AlcoholEdu for College. Failure to do will result in your inability to register for the 2013 spring semester.
Transfer students from other colleges/universities are not required to complete the online course but are highly encouraged to do so.
