McLeod Addictive Disease Center’s 18th Annual Professional Training Series Click here to register for the next training McLeod Addictive Disease Center has been unyielding in its commitment to the growth and development of addiction professionals. McLeod Center's dedication to the field of drug and alcohol treatment is evidenced by the design and implementation of the 18th Annual Professional Training Series. The 18th year includes four national trainers and an interesting mix of key topics such as Clinical Supervision and Core Functions, and exploring cutting-edge research in the field. With an emphasis on the relevant substance abuse issues and trends occurring today, the Professional Training Series builds upon McLeod Center's tradition of excellence in treatment education. Perhaps most significant to the progression of the series is the expansion of required trainings, exemplifying McLeod Center's commitment to professional development. Both the Ethics and HIV/AIDS trainings will be offered two times within the month to accommodate the demand and allow flexibility. Participants are not charged for attendance, nor are agencies asked for contributions. McLeod Center is proud to offer the workshops as an opportunity for both interested persons and substance abuse professionals to learn more about addiction and to grow professionally. Participants will be awarded six hours of certified training credits from the North Carolina Substance Abuse Professional Practice Board (NCSAPPB) for each session.
