The Colombo Plan’s Drug Advisory Programme (DAP) and the Global Centre for Credentialing and Certification (GCCC) are excited to announce that the Self-led online version of the UTC 8: Ethics for Addiction Professionals is now available. It can be accessed here: https://www.issup.net/training/online-learning-hub/utc-self-led

This training series will provide a comprehensive overview of the nature of change and an understanding of the process and elements of treatment for substance use disorders (SUDs).

The overall goal of the training series is to reduce the significant health, social, and economic problems associated with SUDs by building international treatment capacity through training, professionalizing, and expanding the global treatment workforce. The training prepares counsellors for professional certification at the entry level by providing the latest information about SUDs and their treatment and facilitating hands-on activities to develop skills, confidence, and competence.

This course is part of a training series developed through funding from the U.S. Department of State to The Colombo Plan Drug Advisory Programme (DAP).
