The purpose of the combined instruction is to provide the natural link between the traditionally separate training. This competency based workshop will address the proper administration and scoring of the Addiction Severity Index (ASI) as well as the proper utilization of American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) Placement Criteria. The two instruments are commonly used in tandem and this workshop will utilize case studies to enhance the understanding of the assessment process and placement considerations necessary for structuring treatment planning and implementation in a person-centered, evidence-based manner. The participant will receive 12 CEUs for the two-day session; however the workshop also requires participation in a two hour follow-up coaching session approximately 60 days after completion of the workshop for certification in administering the instruments. The purpose of this session is to address questions of coding and placement issues after the clinician has had the opportunity of administering and utilizing the instruments.
