“I felt the professor and the class were job-friendly. I work full time in Detox and Recovery and never know what my schedule will be. Example: I wrote my paper on weekend before virtual chat on Monday, the topic got changed during the chat, I told the professor I had already written mine, his reply was no worries its fine. How awesome is that !“
– Doris B.

“I enjoyed how the professor had us participate and discuss our papers. Interacting with other students and discussing our assignments really open my eyes to different perspectives.“
– Scott P.

“The friendliness of both the professor and students. The discussion board was a very pleasant means of gaining more insight on the struggles that substance addicts and abusers go through, it helps to know so that one can develop empathy to clients in the future. The fact that class mates were willing to share personal experiences is a great help in understanding what is required for someone wanting to help an addict. At this time, I frankly can't think of anything to improve.“
– Asia A.

“The professor! I much prefer the format of the chats in which we would actually have discussions and he would let each student contribute, and then he always provided feedback. He would also give real world examples and talk about addiction above and beyond what is in the textbook.“
– Lesli A.

“I liked the discussion amongst the class during lectures. At the start of the class I was mortified at the idea of speaking to everyone. After the first couple of lectures, I felt much more comfortable speaking with the group.“
– Heather.

“I am grateful to the team of ATI for answering all my millions of questions as this was my first course. I loved how responsive people were, especially Lulu, as I began my early navigation of the class. I enjoyed Ron's presentations and inclusion of the students in the discussions as well as his creative examples of topics covered in the material that allowed us to see it being used in real time. I very much enjoyed the other students, too, once we all started being able to participate in the course. A great first experience!“
– Karin Clark.

“Throughout the entire 8wks everything I learned was actually useful for my future career in addictions as well as in my own personal life. My goals for being in this program are to learn something that can be applied to my own recovery as well as help others and I was able to start achieving both by week 2 of this module. I also enjoy the different levels of difficulty in this module. Some weeks were a breeze and others were difficult to get through.“

I feel he modeled what a good counselor/ therapist is.“
