Accredited Training
In partnership with the School of Education and Lifelong Learning, Bangor University we have developed the Foundation Degree in Substance Misuse. Click here for the course outline
.
This new Foundation Degree in Substance Misuse is an exciting and innovative programme which is set to respond to individuals and organisations who are involved either directly or indirectly with the Drugs and Alcohol misuse sector. There is a clear need in North Wales for a competent and professional workforce of skilled Drug and Alcohol advisors and practitioners whose vocational training is underpinned with the theoretical knowledge and expertise of academic scholarship.
The programme provides a high quality course that meets the needs of many individuals by providing learning opportunities which reinforces and underpins both academic knowledge and work based skills through flexible, part time provision.
