The National LEAD Institute Workforce Development Training for Ministry of Education

The Universal Prevention Curriculum and the Universal Treatment Curriculum provide training programs for those wishing to develop their professional knowledge, skills, and competence in addressing substance use prevention and delivering treatment services to individuals and their families.

LEAD Institute’s Caribbean Correctional Training aims to reduce the significant health, social and economic problems associated with SUDs by building national treatment capacity through training, professionalizing, and expanding the national and regional treatment workforce. Training prepares counselors for professional certification by providing the latest information about SUDs and treatment and facilitating hands-on activities to develop skills and confidence in a relatively new treatment workforce.
