The motivational interviewing and psychosocial interventions modules were immediately applicable in my clinical practice. Excellent board review content.

Comprehensive coverage of addiction psychiatry from neurobiology to drug-specific disorders. The psychiatric co-morbidities section was especially detailed.

Well-organized course covering the full scope of addiction psychiatry. The drug testing and legal considerations session was a unique and valuable addition.

The faculty lineup is outstanding — Douaihy and Karam-Hage are leading voices in addiction psychiatry. The QBank in PDF format was great for self-testing.
Cynthia R. –
Good content overall but some of the video lectures feel dated in presentation style. The substance information itself is solid and comprehensive.
Sam P. –
The multi-session drug class reviews are incredibly thorough. Alcohol-related disorders and opioid-related disorders each get multiple dedicated hours of coverage.
