While healthcare professionals are often on the front lines of treating substance use disorders, most have limited (if any) training in this area. The SUD 101 Core Curriculum was created to provide a foundation of the current research, resources, and support needed to increase healthcare professionals' capabilities to treat their patients across the continuum of care. Each stand-alone course module is available at no cost; certificates will be issued after every completed module.
