Addictions Studies Certificate

Certificate in Addictions Studies
If working in a drug and alcohol treatment center is your career goal, then this is your program.  Designed for those who want to work in the drug and alcohol counseling field immediately upon graduation, COCC’s one-year certificate program couples 1,000 hours of on-the-job training with detailed knowledge of the drug and alcohol field.  And the best part?  Graduates are qualified to take the State of Oregon Certified Drug and Alcohol Counselor (CADC) I exam, preparing them to lead both group and individual treatment sessions.  What could be better?  

See a listing of classes required for the one-year certificate program.  For information on the Associate of Arts Oregon Transfer degree (AAOT) with an emphasis in addictions studies or the Associate of General Studies (AGS) with an emphasis in Addictions Studies, see Addictions Studies.
