Many past trainings are available as on-demand learning opportunities. View the entire on-demand learning catalog here.
All of the CME-eligible courses in our On-Demand Learning Catalog meet the one-time DEA requirement that all clinicians must complete 8 hours of training related to substance use disorder (SUD) treatment for new and renewing licensure. The flyer below highlights over 8 hours of training that will meet that requirement.
