Welcome to the Online Courses

Welcome to the Online Courses section of Prevention Pathways. Through this site we offer prevention courses that are free to the public. Some courses are meant for professionals and have continuing education credits available. Other courses are designed to provide helpful information to members of the general public interested in prevention topics.

If you are considering taking one of the approved courses for credit, we recommend you read How to Use before taking the course.

Courses Approved for State Credit Hours - Prevention Pathways Online Courses are now approved for certification credit hours by the Arkansas Prevention Certification Board (APCB), the Maryland Association of Prevention Professionals and Advocates (MAPPA), and the New York State Office of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Services (OASAS). For available credit hours see the "professional" courses on our Comparison Chart. In order to generate a completion certificate when finished, APCB, MAPPA, and OASAS students must select "Other" as their organization when registering.
