Who Should Attend? The AAAP Review Course in Addiction Psychiatry will continue to meet the high academic and scientific standards set by AAAP over the past decade. The course is excellent preparation for the Spring 2002 ABPN examinations for subspecialty certification and recertification in addiction psychiatry. Past participants have recommended that this be required for PGY-V residents, for general psychiatry residents, as well as periodically for all academic and treatment personnel to stay updated on the most recent trends in the addiction field. They have found the course to be an excellent way to "piece seemingly disparate aspects together," and "an eye-opener!" It is equally relevant to junior faculty and clinicians as well as experienced practitioners.
Learning Objectives Upon completion of this activity, participants will: 1. Receive an overview of addiction psychiatry. 2. Improve their skills in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with substance abuse disorders.
Continuing Medical Education Credit This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the Essential Areas and Policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) through the joint sponsorship of the University of Connecticut School of Medicine and the American Academy of Addiction Psychiatry. The University of Connecticut School of Medicine is accredited by the ACCME to provide continuing medical education for physicians and takes responsibility for the content, quality, and scientific integrity of this CME activity.
