Rio Salado Substance Abuse Courses
#1
Just took a domestic violence and substance abuse course. It is 1 credit and may be repeated up to 4 times. From my understanding the content doesn't change. I finished the course in a day. There are 4 assignments due over 4 weeks. A 100 word summary and a 1 paragraph reflection. The readings are 1-3 pages long per week. The final was easy if you've read the material and the course is graded on a P/F basis. I scored a 78% on my final which was out of 25 questions.

They have quite a few of these courses available and should fit in well with COSC Applied Behavioral Science degree.

Thanks for sharing the information! (Do you think it duplicates the Substance Abuse DSST?)

So it's a 4 week maximum for the course, but you can finish early if desired? What does taking one of the courses up to 4 times do?

yes I got my grade two days after completion. What does it do? It gives you one credit in that specific course.

So you can get up to 4 credits in that one course? Or have 4 chances to retake it if failed? Just a tad confused, lol.

You can take it 4 times for 4 credits. Each pass counts as one credit. So 1,2,3,4
