Top
Educational Institutions |
|
|
| |
In 2006/2007, candidates for the
multiple-choice, computer-administered Registered
Addiction Specialist (RAS) examination received their
qualifying education from over 100 educational
institutions located throughout the United States and
Canada. To put
the candidates on equal footing, all
exam questions are taken from information contained within
The Addiction Professional: Manual for Counselor
Competency, a 418-page study guide (and an
accompanying DVD Tutorial) provided to each RAS exam
candidate.
Which are the top providers of
qualifying education? Each of the educational
institutions listed below graduated students who passed the RAS examination in
2006/2007. Congratulations to these schools and to their
students!
