Introduction to Behavioral Interventions for Tobacco Treatment (2.0 CE hours), a video-based training, provides foundational knowledge on mindfulness and other behavioral interventions for smoking cessation.
Combining pharmacotherapy and behavioral interventions nearly doubles a patient’s chances of quitting tobacco when compared to any intervention alone. Being able to offer tailored behavioral therapies to patients seeking support for tobacco cessation is an important part of providing standard-of-care treatment.
The Duke-UNC Tobacco Treatment Specialist Training Program just launched a free CE course on foundational concepts of mindfulness and other behavioral interventions for tobacco cessation. Through this video and self-study training, participants will learn to identify key behavioral strategies for smoking cessation, understand the success rates for different types and lengths of behavioral therapy, and help patients who have had a lapse or relapsed after quitting. This course also provides instruction on how to guide patients in mindful smoking reduction, urge surfing, mindful walking, and mindfulness meditation.
The course is presented by James Davis, MD, and Jill Dirkes, MSW, LCSW two co-founding members of the Duke-UNC TTS Training Program. The module is accredited by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), and the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), to provide continuing education for a variety of healthcare team members.
In addition to our comprehensive tobacco treatment specialist training program, the Duke-UNC TTS Training Program also offers intensive 1-day CE trainings on tobacco dependence pharmacotherapy and more in-depth behavioral interventions for smoking cessation.

Tried a few platforms over the past months, mostly out of curiosity rather than enthusiasm. Most of them follow the same pattern with delays and unclear processing times. One thing I actually noticed on https://auspokies.net/casinos/fast-withdrawal was that the withdrawal speed data came from actual user reports rather than marketing copy. That alone made it more readable than most review sites. The list covers Australian platforms specifically, which is useful if you care about regional licensing and local payment methods. Nothing groundbreaking, but the information looks organized and not inflated. I checked a few entries manually and they matched what I found elsewhere. Still, no list is perfect and conditions change without notice. Approach any such resource with reasonable skepticism and verify…

Spent some time looking into platforms that accept Mastercard in Switzerland. The regulatory environment there is genuinely strict, which filters out a fair amount of unreliable operators. From what I observed, Mastercard casino options in that region tend to process deposits fairly quickly, often within minutes. Encryption is standard practice among licensed providers. Nothing groundbreaking, but it functions as expected. Availability varies by platform, so checking beforehand saves time. Not every licensed site integrates this payment method. Worth verifying before committing to any account. Approach with the usual caution regardless of how reputable a platform appears.
