APSU is now recruiting participants for the LEAP Training (formerly known as the Peer Helper Training).

This free training is designed specifically for people who have experienced alcohol and other drug (AOD) addiction, and are currently in stable recovery. Please note that we do not subscribe to any one definition of recovery, but do require that people are stable for this training.

LEAP covers a range of AOD related topics by facilitators with current working knowledge in the field. It prepares participants for peer work in the AOD sector, as well as for further education in AOD related studies. The training is also an opportunity for people who have had a disrupted education to test the waters and build their self-esteem for official education in any other field.

The training will be held:

When: 18 March – 1 April (total of 32 hours / 8 sessions)

Where: SHARC – 140 Grange Road Carnegie
