The Advanced Certificate in Addictions Counseling Program, a partnership between Strong Recovery Services, the Warner School of Education, and the School of Medicine and Dentistry, is rounding the bend on its pilot year. The faculty, staff, and students who made this program possible feel tremendous pride in the learning community we’ve collaboratively created.

What makes our program unique is the targeted curriculum of substance use disorder education that is often missing from master level human service degrees. Therefore, in two short semesters a student will obtain all the necessary educational hours to meet the requirements to become a CASAC-Trainee. 

Additionally, the program includes two tracks, one for students interested in gaining more alcohol and other drug clinical internship experience at Strong Recovery, and the other track is designed for students interested in learning more about clinical supervision. In total, the commitment is two semesters, and the cohort begins every fall. 

Interested in learning more about this program and becoming a Credentialed Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Counselor? An informational session will be held on March 28th at noon.
