Wake Tech is closed December 24 through January 4 for winter break and will reopen January 5. Prospective students can still apply for enrollment online during the break, and continuing students can register for Spring semester classes, which start January 7.
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.
