About Learning Institute
Department of Alcohol & Drug Services is an organization whose staff
continues to learn by working in an environment where continuous change
is the norm. The substance abuse field continues to evolve and expand
rapidly, with research providing new understanding to help guide the
response to substance abuse problems. It is clear that substance abuse
affects every part of the community and requires a community-wide response.
This response
involves several related disciplines and fields.
The Learning Institute was created to address the need for continual learning and renewal. Experts from around the country provide the general public, as well as staff from various agencies and community organizations, the most current research-based information about substance abuse problems.
Many courses and workshops offered by the Learning Institute satisfy
continuing education requirements for professionals licensed with the
California State Board of Behavioral Sciences (BBS), California State
Board of Registered Nurses (BRN) and California Association of Alcoholism
and Drug Abuse Counselors (CAADAC). The staff of DADS Learning Institute
welcomes feedback from participants about the quality and usefulness
of training, as well as any suggestions for new training opportunities.
