DUKE-UNC TTS: A UNIQUE EDUCATIONAL PARTNERSHIP
The Duke-UNC Tobacco Treatment Specialist Training Program is a collaboration of three leaders in tobacco treatment, education, and research--the Duke Smoking Cessation Program, the University of North Carolina Tobacco Treatment Program, and the North Carolina Division of Public Health--and has been making TTS education accessible to medical, behavioral and public health professionals in North Carolina and beyond since 2016.
The primary aim of the program is to train health professionals to provide evidence-based treatment for tobacco use and dependence. Our comprehensive tobacco treatment specialist training and 1-day continuing education intensives provide an impactful education experience for a wide variety of professionals, including clinicians, nurses, pharmacists, social workers, public health policy-makers, and more.

VIRTUAL TOBACCO TRAINING OPTIONS FOR INDIVIDUALS AND ORGANIZATIONS
In early 2020, the Duke-UNC Tobacco Treatment Specialist Training Program was first made available as a virtual, web-based experience. Through a combination of interactive virtual classes and online self-paced training, Duke-UNC TTS offers leading edge continuing education in a fun and engaging online experience.
Program options include 4-day and single-day virtual programs, sponsored virtual events, custom corporate trainings, as well as opportunities to bring the on-site Duke-UNC TTS Training Program to your area in 2023, as pandemic conditions permit.
