Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of the possibilities of the disciplines "Civil Defense" and "Life Safety and Occupational Safety in the Industry" in terms of training students to provide psychological first aid in emergency situations and under martial law. The author emphasizes that in planning the educational process, it is necessary to take into account the fact that the war caused a number of humanitarian and social problems, provoking the exhaustion of all participants in the educational process and leading to a high probability of developing post- traumatic stress and panic disorders. The education sector of Ukraine is forming a system of monitoring and protection of all participants in the educational process with the aim of alleviating the psychological impact of the armed conflict and creating a safe educational environment. The analyzed measures introduced by the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine and other organizations aimed at helping Ukrainians learn to control their psycho-emotional state, avoid fear, panic attacks or post-traumatic syndrome. The results of the experience of studying the topic "First psychological aid in emergency situations" are given. It is noted that psychological first aid does not require special professional psychological training, since its important characteristic is simplicity, and therefore, the knowledge obtained as a result of studying psychological-pedagogical and professional training disciplines is quite sufficient. The educational platforms that gave students the opportunity to gain knowledge on providing psychological first aid were analyzed, in particular, the Academy of Resilience platform, Prometheus, EdEra, Zpromilo!, the training course for educators "First psychological aid to participants in the educational process during and after the end of hostilities." It was concluded that the knowledge gained by students as a result of participation in projects, conferences, online lectures and online courses of informal education on psychological help turned out to be very popular and useful for the professional activity of teachers. The authors are convinced that today the priority is to create a system of comprehensive training of future specialists in providing psychological first aid, in particular, during the study of civil protection and life safety and occupational health and safety courses in the industry.
