This 2 hour course will be delivered by our trainers over the ZOOM conferencing system. It is for people working with residents of Derbyshire, UK.

This trainer led interactive course is designed to give professionals an increased knowledge and understanding around problematic alcohol use. Derbyshire Alcohol Advice Service have been delivering training about Drugs and Alcohol for many years and have developed this course as an accessible introduction to a range of issues around alcohol

At the end of the session the learner will have gained:

• a basic understanding of alcohol unit measurement

• knowledge of the recommended alcohol guidelines

• an understanding of the effects of alcohol and how they relate to ‘health’ risks categories

• know how to refer clients onto to specialist alcohol services

There will be opportunity to take part in learning activities and ask questions through out the course.

This course can be taken on its own but also forms a trio of course with Alcohol awareness and a Service talk about Derbyshire Recovery Partnership

These courses are funded by Derbyshire County Council for anyone working/volunteering in the fields of health, social or community work.
