Student Safety Patrol
What is the Student Safety Patrol?
The Student Safety Patrol is a team of friendly and trained Concordia student volunteers who help create a safer and more welcoming campus. Operating under Campus Safety and Prevention Services, Student Safety Patrol members offer SafeWalk accompaniment services, provide first aid assistance and engage with the community through outreach and campus patrols — helping everyone feel supported and secure.
Make a difference on campus
Join a collaborative team of fellow students, Concordia Emergency Response Team (CERT) members and experienced staff dedicated to campus safety. As part of this evolving program, you'll help shape how it grows while gaining hands-on experience in emergency response and community support.
What you'll do
- Support campus safety. Join patrols, assist with the SafeWalk program, help at events and provide first aid when needed.
- Train and grow. Receive comprehensive training in emergency first aid, CPR, SafeWalk procedures, evacuations and more — so you feel confident and prepared.
- Choose your schedule. Volunteer when it works for you, with flexible evening shifts available Monday to Friday from 6 to 11 p.m. (and weekend shifts coming soon).
- Relax between calls. Enjoy access to the Campus Safety and Prevention Services lounge — a space to study, connect with others or practice your skills while on standby.
Student Safety Patrol volunteers are not security personnel
Volunteers do not intervene in conflicts or security incidents that are non-medical in nature.
Instead, the Student Safety Patrol is focused on fostering a safe, supportive campus environment. As a volunteer, your role is to promote well-being — not enforcement.
More reasons to volunteer
- Build your resume. Acquire real-world first responder experience and receive professional references.
- Get recognized. Your contributions will be acknowledged on your co-curricular record.
- Make connections. Work alongside students, staff and safety professionals in a meaningful and supportive environment.
