I really enjoyed the course and especially the open discussion. The only drawback is the lack of Canadian information and maps but due to it being an American courses, it is understandable.

Please have more racially diverse medical health participants in the discussion forum and add two non-health professionals with lived experiences with addiction participate in the forums.

A very simple, user friendly course; the use of simple language assists in the understanding of the lessons.

I believe there should be some treated alcoholics/addicts who are members of 12 step groups included in this panel of professionals. 12 step programs would benefit by learning from medical professionals. This would increase the efficacy of both treatments and reduce the polarised view that 12 step programs have a high failure rate because they are not 'evidence based' and that medication wont' help in addiction/alcoholism. AA sends people to doctors, doctors to AA.

It took me 20+ hours to complete this course.The main information could have been imparted in 3-4 hours. There were lots of redundancies.but the speakers were very knowledgable

This was informative, but out of touch in terms of functional interventional techniques for replacement behavior & medication. This is also doesn't take into account simultaneous research in possible rudimentary positive feedback loops/reinforcement in comparison to extreme negative feedback loops i.e. effectiveness of specific methods of extreme behavior modification with Stanford prisoner study electroshock "therapy" vs. basic positive reinforcement using a Pavlovian method. Also didn't discuss practical methods for effective gambling cessation techniques & effective means of muting environmental stimuli that increase the likelihood of keeping people in cycles of financial distress/poverty. Could've used studies that involve functional MRI, or EEG in the positive reward feedback loop in order to personalize & identify possible strategies to replace the behavior with reasonably attempting to find out what an equally rewarding behavior might be to an individual (since those obviously vary per person) vs. archaic techniques in prescribing what could only be described as "punitive" (& frankly negatively stigmatized) tranquilizers & sedatives. I get that it's an introductory class, but there are far more interesting topics & methods for successful & functional behavior reallocation that could stand to be discussed.
