All Wake Tech campuses are closed Tuesday due to inclement weather. Students taking in-person classes should check with their instructors for more information. Online classes continue as scheduled. Many Wake Tech student services, including Admissions and Advising, are available online at virtualsupport.waketech.edu. Wake Tech employees who can work remotely should do so.
The Addiction and Recovery Studies Intervention Certificate is designed for individuals who already hold a degree in a discipline not related to human or social services and have little previous experience working in addiction treatment settings.
The certificate requires completion of field work hours, and it may assist students in meeting the educational requirements for certification and/or licensure from the North Carolina Addictions Specialist Professional Practice Board.
The certificate transfers into the Social & Human Services AAS Degree program for students wishing to earn a two-year degree. Individuals who don't have any previous college experience are encouraged to consider the AAS program.
