Will an Associate Degree other than an Associate Degree in Chemical Dependency satisfy the Washington State Department of Health minimum degree requirement for the CDP credential?
A. Yes, but possession of an Associate degree (or higher degree) is only one of a number of requirements that must be satisfied. If your degree did not include a minimum of 45 credits of coursework specifically related to ACD counseling, additional coursework will be necessary to fulfill DOH requirements. The Chemical Dependency Specialist Certificate was specifically designed for this purpose.
