Accreditation
PATH have been working in partnership with Glasgow Caledonian University to develop accredited modules in smoking cessation. There are three modules: one in giving Brief Advice to quit smoking; one in Specialist Cessation support in one-to-one settings; and one for Specialist Cessation support in groups. The modules will reflect the standards for smoking cessation training in Scotland.
All three modules are now up and running. A full timetable for the current session can be found in this module timetable document (1 page, 59kb)
