State Certification and/or Licensure for Substance Use Disorder Treatment Professionals is a notice about the certification and licensure that states require of people who provide substance use disorder treatment services.
What the catalog says
The catalog states: “These programs prepare students for certification with CCAPP (CCAPPCredentialing.org), CAADE (Dev.CAADE.org), and CADTP (CADTPCounselors.org).”
“If a student wants to earn a substance abuse counseling certificate or degree to provide direct services that involve screening, assessment, diagnosis, treatment planning and treatment of substance use disorder, they will likely need to seek state licensure.”
“InterCoast Colleges does not guarantee that the completion of this program will result in state licensure or certification.”
