Summer 2012 Course Offerings:
COGNITIVE-BEHAVIORAL INTERVENTIONS FOR SUBSTANCE ABUSE TREATMENT
(This course is under review for CEU and BRCH certification)
The Corrections Institute is committed to assisting you in the delivery of quality offender treatment services. In light of the limited availability of evidence-based, affordable substance abuse curricula, we have developed the Cognitive Behavioral Intervention for Substance Abuse. As the name of the curriculum suggests, this intervention utilizes a cognitive-behavioral approach to teach participants strategies for dealing with substance abuse. The curriculum places heavy emphasis on skill-building activities to assist with cognitive, social, emotional, and coping skill development. Our goal is to provide a high fidelity program. The training is a comprehensive three-day session that involves practice of module sessions. The training will cover each of the six modules with a representative sample of the 38 sessions being demonstrated by the instructor(s) or participants. The training is primarily comprised of modeling and having participants practice delivery of the modules.
Cost: $750 per person
This 3-day session has two schedule options: (please choose one)
- July 24 – July 26, 2012 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM daily
- July 31 – August 2, 2012 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM daily
*Training space is limited to 36 trainees per session; please email your preferred schedule option to Jennifer.Scott@uc.edu to be placed on the RSVP list.
