From October 14 to 18, 2024, V-ITTC collaborated with the Colombo Plan to organize a 5-day in-person training on Universal Prevention Curriculum Core (UPC 10). The program was attended by 22 educators and staff from multiple academic institutions, including medical schools, universities, a high school, and social organizations in Vietnam. Guided by two trainers from the Colombo Plan, participants received comprehensive training on the physiology and pharmacology of psychoactive substances, behavior theory, evidence-based prevention strategies, intervention policies, and international standards in substance use prevention. The program featured group-based practical exercises to encourage knowledge sharing and real-world application. Pre- and post-training assessments were conducted to measure learning outcomes. Participants are expected to apply the knowledge and skills acquired to strengthen prevention efforts within their institutions.
