APA Offers Buprenorphine Training
APA provides waiver-eligible training in prescription of buprenorphine through an online course and live courses at both the APA Annual Meeting and IPS: Mental Health Services Conference. This year’s Annual Meeting course will be held on Saturday, May 14. The course has already reached registration capacity, but a wait list is being kept. APA’s training is made available through the SAMHSA-funded Providers’ Clinical Support System for Medication Assisted Treatment (PCSS-MAT).
As a partner in the PCSS-MAT, APA offers a monthly webinar series that augments the eight-hour training. Each session is recorded and accessible on the APA website and the APA Learning Center. Sessions are organized by the year of presentation. These free sessions earn participants one hour of CME.
