Practise ways to effectively collaborate and transform lives as a valuable part of professional support teams.
You will acquire the knowledge, skills and abilities required by employers to deliver effective services to people with addictions and mental health concerns, while promoting empowerment, self-determination and optimal quality of life.
The curriculum examines social determinants of health, recovery principles, empowering practices, and trauma-informed approaches, ensuring graduates are prepared for the workforce.
Use and sharpen new skills while gaining crucial on-the-job work experience. Field experience takes place in the final semester of the program and enables students to apply theory to practice in a workplace or project-based setting. Students will also be completing coursework and attending seminar classes alongside the field experience.
