This comprehensive 3-hour continuing education course, "A Review of Addiction for the Professional," provides a rigorous examination of the multidimensional nature of substance use disorders (SUDs). Designed specifically for Kansas addiction professionals, the curriculum bridges the gap between foundational addiction science and advanced clinical application. Participants will explore the neurobiological underpinnings of addiction, the nuances of pharmacology, and the critical importance of accurate clinical evaluation using DSM-5-TR criteria and ASAM placement standards. The course delves into evidence-based treatment models, specifically Motivational Interviewing (MI) and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), while addressing the complexities of co-occurring disorders. Furthermore, the training emphasizes the shift toward Recovery-Oriented Systems of Care (ROSC), ensuring practitioners are equipped to facilitate long-term recovery through integrated support systems, family engagement, and culturally responsive practice.
