Advance Your Career!
Get the job-ready skills you need to start an in-demand career

Are you looking for a career that allows you to make a difference in someone’s life? Are you an empathetic person with an ability to reach out to people who need it? You should consider a career in addictions work.

Addictions workers play important roles in the lives of those living with substance abuse, mental health issues, and other challenges. As such, these paraprofessionals need to rely on a wide-range of skills and knowledge. The Addictions and Community Services Worker program at CDI College is designed to prepare graduates for positions that assist clients facing substance abuse issues.

Program Duration:
52 weeks

Students in the Addictions and Community Services Worker program gain a fundamental understanding of psychology, pharmacology, ethics, and communications. They also learn about the fundamentals of addiction and its impact on high risk populations, youth, and families. In addition, students will learn about case file management, treatment planning, and various community resources available to clients with addiction and mental health issues in Ontario.

Prior to graduation, students put their knowledge and skills to the test in a mandatory community placement. Graduates of this program will be prepared to work in a range of social service settings in the province. The program is approved by the Canadian Addiction Counsellors Certification Federation (CACCF).

Why We Are Better?

We do things differently at our CDI college and that’s why we get different results.

As professionals, we believe success is a habit and not a destination. CDI students who learn the same successful habits that have been applied by many people who have come before them, often find themselves repeating and exceeding these same levels of success

Do I have to apply for financial aid each year?

Yes. Your financial situation must be reassessed each year.

Do We Offer Financial Aid?

Yes, we offer Grants, Loans and Private Student Loans.
