Red Frogs Australia have run sessions and have trainers available in most locations throughout Australia to work with your Residential Advisors, Tutors, Student Clubs and even Staff members in your college or hall.

Red Frogs offer a training package comprising of a session on youth and student culture as well as drug and alcohol issues related to these environments.  In these sessions, we detail statistics and patterns representing a snapshot of student culture in Australia and major issues affecting residential colleges and halls including peer pressure; binge drinking and associated issues; and the alienation of moderate and non-drinkers in college events.  We then focus on creative alternative programming options for generating successful non-alcohol driven opportunities in the college environment.

Along with these sessions, Red Frogs offers workshops on topics including Strategic planning for O-Week and college programming.  Student leadership development is another area covered, focusing on the principles that people won’t always do what you say but they might do what you do and the need to become the change you want to see as well as the importance of long-term thinking and leaving a legacy.

We can also source motivational speakers, including sports celebrities such as Eric Bailey, and speakers on specific drug and alcohol issues if required.  Red Frogs are often heavily booked in preparation week and during the student club changeover process so remember to book early to ensure your training session.

Suggested dates for training – This session can be implemented all year round but is especially valuable in September and October (during change-over when new committees and RAs are selected) and in February and March to Pre O-Week.

Red Frog trainers are very sought after and experienced as Red Frogs Australia recruits and trains over 2000 volunteers around Australia and New Zealand each year. 

Training sessions cost between $200 and $400 but may be provided to colleges and halls on a donation basis.  Depending on budgets, trainers can be sourced locally in most regions to lower costs.  We are however, committed to development in universities in Australia and will donate our time if required.  To make a booking contact our hotline on 1300 557 123 or email us at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
