Complete your “Be Well, Do Well” online education.
If you're a first-year student or newly entering transfer student, you are required to complete the “Be Well, Do Well” training video and quiz by the end of the fifth week of the semester. The training video is about 90 minutes long, and you can leave the training and resume watching it, as needed. Then, you’ll complete a 10-question multiple choice quiz to test understanding of the material presented in the training.
As a new part of the Huskie family, you will learn that Huskies are there for each other and help one another to thrive. We know that college can be a stressful and challenging time. The best way to make the most of your time at NIU and beyond is to “be well” by taking care of yourself, supporting your fellow Huskies, reaching out for help and doing what you can to support your overall wellness. We know that when you feel well, you do well.
To complete the training:
- Log-in to Blackboard.
- Go to “Organizations” in the navigation, and choose “Be Well, Do Well: Healthy Decision-Making for College Students.”
- Watch the video (about 90 minutes).
- Take the quiz.
If you have questions about the training, please email bewell@niu.edu.
