Addiction Studies

Addiction Studies - Online - (minor)

The SPADA program minor can be completed in its entirety online, or in combination with on-campus coursework in Kalamazoo. A multidisciplinary program, the 18 credit-hour minor prepares students to effectively function with abuse issues in professional and personal arenas. It provides a balanced orientation between theory and practice and does not emphasize any single method for dealing with the problems of substance abuse. Course credit hours may be applied to the educational requirement for the Certified Addictions Counselor Reciprocal (CAC-R) Credential.
