ACTS Consulting Online School

I am new to this field and just starting the courses for CAC and this is very relevant and helpful information!!!

This course was my first via the online format and I was already excited because I was not expecting any need for sign language interpreters. Sure enough everything was laid out in a very simple, easy-to-use system. The material was spot on in terms of relevance and use for my work situation. Thanks for a successful online experience!

The course is wonderful for this stage of my professional development. I came away with a sense of the importance and necessity for a open, honest and frank relationship with my clinical supervisor from the very beginning. The course dilemma scenarios, the material presented on actual case histories, along with the re-assurance that being human is part and parcel of the counselor experience, inspired me to continue to pursue my certification with a sensible approach, not a fear based litigation/liability approach that I initially began the course with. I was quite surprised with my knowledge level at the pre-course test vs the course exam. The course work enables a more distinct, clearer thought process on issues, boundaries and relationships eliminating the foundation to form new biases and enabling the elimination of old bias patterns.

Well done. Thanks. Ewell

The curriculum for this course was well designed. The information was relevant to today's situations. I recommend this Ethics course!

This course was very informative. I thought the articles and ethics codes and definitions provided were great to learn so you can have a good understanding of the ethic standards and guidelines as it applies to you as a professional, and give the client the best care. I would truly recommend this course to other professionals.

Excellent use of articles with case studies/scenarios and examples of ethical decisions regarding professional issues, boundaries, and dual relationships.

This is a great online course.

This course was a revelation. As I got deeper into the course I realized how much gray area there can be that we need guidelines and supervision to make sure we are staying between the lines. Learning about the three legal areas that an Addiction counselor is regulated ie: Criminal, Civil and Administrative really opened my eyes to the importance of understanding the ethics codes. Understanding how the ethics codes address issues like confidentiality, boundaries and dual relationships was reinforced at the in person classes I have taken with DR. Sherman.
