We have in excess of 30 years experience and have
played a pivotal role in the on-going training and education of
professionals in the area of substance misuse. This is achieved
through formal training programmes, placements and courses and is
supported by our telephone advisory service.
Non-Consultant Hospital
Doctors
We are recognised by the Royal College of Psychiatrists for training
at both Registrar and Senior Registrar level. As part of our commitment
to all the medical schools, students attend for formal lectures
and tutorials. Several doctors over the years who participated in
the programme are now consultants in Ireland and Britain. A similar
arrangement exists with the Irish College of General Practitioners.
Counsellors
Students attending counselling courses at Trinity College or University
College Dublin, as part of their training, avail of placements that
are supervised by our counselling team.
Employment Placements
As a leading service provider in the area of substance misuse we
facilitate professional training through training placements, which
form part of the training of a number of different professions and
disciplines.
