The Addiction Intervention Competency Framework (2011) outlines the values, attitudes, knowledge and skills of the workforce that provides specialist interventions to assist people to address gambling, tobacco, alcohol and/or other drug challenges.
The Framework has been designed to apply broadly across a range of practice contexts and to be sufficiently flexible to allow for emerging developments.
It sets out the baseline values, attitudes, knowledge, and skills relevant to key roles within problem gambling, alcohol and other drug, and smoking cessation intervention.
The Framework underpins dapaanz registration and endorsement processes. All registered or endorsed members must demonstrate specific competencies (as outlined within the Framework) relevant to their role.
