Ever wonder if the school you have attended is approved by CAADAC? Do you worry that the school you have been using will not be accepted as part of your certification process? Have you been told that the school you attended is not accepted by CAADAC and that you could not use their courses toward your CADCA or CADC? The following information can help you avoid any confusion or anxiety related to the school you attended, are attending, or are planning to attend!
All education content and applications for approval are reviewed autonomously by CFAAP, California Foundation for Advancement of Addiction Professionals which is considered the education board for CAADAC/CCBADC. CFAAP exclusively reviews educational content to assure it meets the requirements for certification and recommends approval, denial or deferment to CAADAC.

If someone wants to attend an institution not on the “CAADAC Approved California Alcohol & Drug Program Schools” list, call the CAADAC office to see if the institution has been approved (there are approximately 24 schools whose programs have been approved). If the school or program has not been approved in the past, please review the curriculum to see if it meets CAADAC’s requirements. The required course work must include the following:
