I've purchased The ASAM Criteria, Fourth Edition, why do I need training?

The Fourth Edition equips you with changes to the Dimensional Admission Criteria that further empower the care you offer to those struggling with co-occurring disorders. However, to fully create robust treatment plans based on those updates, it's crucial that you and your team have an in-depth understanding of the changes.

As an ASAM Designated Training Organization, our trainers--formerly clinicians--are immersed in the Fourth Edition updates and prepared to help your team consistently use and apply The ASAM Criteria for the development of effective ASAM Criteria Level of Care and Treatment Planning Assessments.
