The Registered Addiction Specialist (RAS) exam tutorial has
been prepared for use with The Addiction
Professional: Manual for Counselor Competency
-
The tutorial follows along in
the same order as the Chapters in the
Manual
-
The tutorial will identify all of the subject matter that may be
tested upon within
the current multiple-choice RAS exam
-
If it is not in the Manual,
it will not be on the
Exam
|
|
|
The tutorial is divided into
the following sections:
Understanding Addiction,
Treatment Knowledge & Application to Practice,
Professional Readiness and
Counselor Competencies
-
Watch the tutorial as you follow along with the Manual
-
Highlight in your Manual the areas identified in the
tutorial, and then go back and study those areas
-
All of the questions on the RAS Exam are taken from the
material included in the Manual

If there is a conflict between the information that you have
learned through your clinical experience or formal
education and the information contained within the
Manual, answer the exam questions based upon the
information contained within the Manual

better for you

Or, if you previously started and would prefer
continuing to use the earlier Tutorial format (with
nine sections), it is still available at the bottom
of this page, and you may still use that earlier
Tutorial to prepare
for the exam.

GOOD LUCK! |
