The Tobacco Treatment Specialist Graduate Certificate provides extensive knowledge and counseling skills training for treating tobacco dependence, the number one cause of preventable death and disease. The certificate content is divided into three 3-credit hour courses (NUR 621, 622 and 623) and is valuable to persons working in healthcare, including behavioral health, health promotion and prevention, and public health. Participants will critically review the literature on tobacco products and use, health effects, treatment, prevention, and policy. The certificate is an extension of the accredited BREATHE Tobacco Treatment Specialist Training. Successful completion of this program will provide participants with a certificate that can be used as eligibility to apply for a national certificate in tobacco treatment practice.
