To raise awareness and provide education, the North Carolina Problem Gambling Program (NCPGP) and the Division of MH/DD/SAS are sponsoring a four-part workshop to provide in-depth knowledge about problem gambling and treatment interventions. In this training, topics of problem and pathological gambling, gambling counseling theory and practice, regulations and ethical issues, and financial aspects of remuneration will be addressed.
Completion of this training will meet one of the requirements necessary for the NCPGP Provider Registry. Participation in this training does not assure that a provider will be selected for the NCPGP Registry, but it is a required component of becoming an NCPGP provider.
While this training is open to anyone, completion of both Sure Bet One and Two will meet the requirements necessary for application for the NC Problem Gambling Program (NCPGP) Provider Registry. Participation in these trainings does not assure that a provider will be selected for the NCPGP Registry, but it is a required component of becoming an NCPGP provider.
