Sexual Assault Awareness and Safety Training for International Students

At International Student Insurance, we are dedicated to promoting international education and providing resources for schools all around the world to create awareness with their international students on topics like Mental Health and Sexual Assault.

This year we have partnered with RAINN, the nation’s largest anti-sexual violence organization, to develop a training program to help schools educate their international students on sexual assault, consent, staying safe, and bystander intervention. As part of this partnership, we are proud to announce our multi-media Sexual Assault Awareness and Safety for International Students Training Program that is available to schools. This free modular-based training program can be customized depending on the available time, and has been designed so that any school can implement it, as it comes with a step by step guide to walk administrators through the entire session.

The Sexual Assault Training Program has five key components:

  • A full length PowerPoint presentation that will guide educators and students through the training. The presentation is the heart of the training packet as the additional materials were built around it.
  • A complete proctor guide with a full script and talking points to walk the educator through the entire training.
  • Student activities to engage international students on this topic, and to help delve further into key concepts, reinforce the information, and encourage important dialogue.
  • Two videos:
    • Student Stories Video is a 7-minute video that showcases 11 international students and their perspectives on the subject of sex and consent from their home country compared to their experiences in the US.
    • Sexual Assault Awareness video is a 6-minute video that offers a concise overview of topics like sexual assault, consent, bystander intervention and what to do in case an assault takes place.
  • Sexual Assault pamphlet that summarizes the material covered in the training. Schools may request physical brochures at no cost.
