The professional training programme is designed to provide a foundation of knowledge for professionals in a variety of fields working with people who misuse substances and their families. This programme offers an opportunity to learn alongside professionals from other fields, and is a complement to any internal training programme offered by individual agencies. Most classes are free of charge and are available across Suffolk.
