Introduction to the Program
Through this 100% online Postgraduate certificate, you will design effective Suicide Prevention strategies that will contribute to optimize the overall well-being of patients in the long term”

Suicide is preventable, but its approach requires comprehensive strategies that combine the identification of Risk Factors with the promotion of protective factors. Given this, the implementation of effective public policies, such as access to mental health care, restriction of lethal means and awareness campaigns, has been shown to reduce suicide rates in several countries. Therefore, it is essential that psychologists have a thorough understanding of the main variables that contribute to suicide and explore evidence-based prevention models, in order to contribute to the formulation of effective public health strategies.
In this context, TECH launches an innovative Postgraduate certificate in Risk and Protective Factors in Suicidal Behavior. Prepared by experts in this area, the academic itinerary will delve into aspects ranging from the interpretation of self-injurious behavior in Greek mythology or the impact of this ideation in the visual narrative to the sensationalism in the media coverage of suicides. As a result, graduates will develop skills to identify Risk and Protective Factors, analyze the effects of media treatment on public perception and design highly effective preventive strategies.
