I have become enriched by latest knowlegde and current practical skills in addiction treatment which will be highly beneficial to my patients in my Deaddiction Center.
Thanks to all the guiding teachers.

Curso excelente. Completo e interesante. Con profesionales cualificados en el campo de las adicciones y muy buena capacidad para exponer y explicar a los alumnos interesados en este curso. Si tuviera que destacar algo parcialmente negativo serÃa para alumnos fuera de USA, el curso se centra mucho en la adicción y tratamiento de opioides, y deja un poco de lado otras drogas.

Excelente, muy buen ritmo de voz y supieron transmitir sus conocimientos. Me fue muy dificil contestar los examenes pues eran todos en ingles. Fue un gran esfuerzo para mi, y les agradezco la oportunidad de abrirnos las puertas para aprender de sus excelentes docentes por este medio. Felicidades, ojala´ sigan abriendo sus purtas al aprendizaje de calidad por este medio.

First class course on how to talk to, get help for, and support a human being with an Unhelpful Addictive Behaviour. While I do not subscribe to the disease model, and see Unhelpful Addictive Behaviour as a common human condition, with levels of chronicity including deadly, this course empowered me to be more effective with a human being I might encounter. Love it.

Should be required for anyone in or thinking about entering the substance abuse field. The lectures, readings, and discussions were engaging and informative. Future clinicians, individuals in recovery, family members impacted by substance abuse, or anyone interested in the science and treatment of substance use disorder would find this course worth their time.

I thoroughly enjoyed the way the material and information is presented. The teachers who guide you through the course are great. I also enjoyed that you could listen to the videos or read what would be said because I absorb information better through reading than listening. Super helpful course for substance abuse disorders. I would highly recommend.

It was a course that completely changed and improved my views on the approach to addictions. The process of looking at it as a purely chronic disease and revealing its similarities with diabetes was eye-opening. A very positive learning environment, especially the panels and lecturers' discussions were instructive. Thank you to all my teachers.

A well coordinated team. The panel discussions were lively and made the content clearer. The course will help me greatly in my work among people with SUDs in Nairobi, Kenya. I would love to interact more with the content as I explore avenues to advance my knowldge in this area. What other course would be recommended for me? Thank you, Senga

The course was relevant, forward thinking and very informative. I enjoyed the ability to move at my own pace and found tools to use in my journey to Learn more about addiction medicine. My goal is to add genuine compassion together with knowledge to the practice of healing & wellness of any persons impacted by addiction. October 2020

Great course! Although some lectures and activities are more applicable in US, the concept may also be used in my country. The technique of giving a theoretical perspective, then practical application, and panelists discussion helped to better understand the topic and put the lessons into clearer perspective.

I really loved this course. I took it so I could get more experience and a certification for my work. But It helped shape my perspective in more ways than I initially expected. It was very enlightening and engaging. This is the first course I have taken on this site. I look forward to taking more courses.

Loved the interdisciplinary approach and recognition of how social determinants of health strongly influence people with SUD and how they might or might not approach recovery. Very thorough course for only being 6 weeks of content. Was very helpful for my work as a nurse in a supervised consumption site.

I enjoyed the point of views of multiple presenters and seeing treatment offered through the lense of their training and expertise. It made my educational experience much more comprehensive. However what was most valuable to me was the empathy that came across the discussions and options. Thank you.

For me, the course was magnificent. My only problem was the language barrier, which in some way influenced something, even though it also helped me in that area and learning to use the skills of the course, since it is the first time I have taken a course for this wow, but i love it

Really great course, I learned so much! My only complaint is that the last two videos before the module 6 quiz was difficult to hear and wasn't as engaging because of the audio for me. I also procrastinated a bit because of the length of the videos, but they were informative!

This was a great course, my internship is working with SU (substance use) and learning about medication management, side affects, treatment options, and other aspects allows myself to know the population much better. The courses were easy to follow and informative.
