Professional Development Opportunities
Looking for professional growth opportunities? Seek to further your education, or share what you’ve learned with others. Attend or present at one of our quarterly alumni events.
Quarterly Alumni Association Presentation Events
Four continuing education presentations are scheduled throughout the year for alumni to attend as professional development opportunities. Join other alumni to network with colleagues in the field, learn more about specific topics related to addiction and mental health counseling, earn continuing education credits, and participate in engaging conversations.

Graduate School alumni serve as presenters for presentation events.
Topics
Presentation topics vary, and are chosen by alumni presenters. Topics relate to research or personal interests in specific areas of addiction and mental health counseling.
