Drug and Alcohol Awareness

You may be asking yourself, “Why do I need drug and alcohol training?” Many people think of substance abuse as something that only affects other people. In fact, it affects everyone – sometimes directly, sometimes indirectly. Maybe someone you know has a history of substance abuse. Or perhaps you are unaware of the costs associated with substance abuse for your employer and the economy in general. Even if you never come into direct contact with someone who misuses drugs or alcohol, this course will provide you with valuable information. This online drug and alcohol course will help you recognize the signs of substance and alcohol abuse, understand its personal and workplace consequences, and learn practical strategies for risk reduction and intervention. Trainees will earn a certificate of completion.
