Join us in creating a happy, healthy learning environment for everyone at UNMC.

The focus of the Learning Environment & Wellness group is to examine ways to work together to create, support and facilitate a learning environment at UNMC centered on respect, collegiality, kindness and cooperation.

The group concentrates on evaluation and development of projects to foster a safe and supportive atmosphere to assist learners in developing their personal and professional identity. Personal and professional wellness opportunities are offered to enhance member well-being and encourage the well-being of learners, colleagues and the communities we serve.

Members of the group may collaborate in various areas based on interest. Potential topics include:

  • Wellness through human connection
  • Creating a learning environment that supports wellness
  • Connection between wellness and learning
  • Scholarly activity focused on wellness for faculty, staff, and students

If you are interested in joining the group, please email the Academy for more information.
