Substance Use Prevention Training

IISUP I: Welcome to Prevention is a self-paced, online course which introduces participants to the prevention field. It provides an overview of the need for prevention services, prevention history, the evolution of prevention science and evidence-based prevention. Estimated completion time for the course is 2 hours.

IISUP II: SUP System Orientation is a self-paced, online course that introduces Illinois Department of Human Services (IDHS) Substance Use Prevention Program (SUPP) providers to the Illinois substance use prevention system (SUP). The course includes an overview of IDHS and SUPP; roles and responsibilities of SUPP providers; and grant, reporting and training requirements. Additionally, IISUP II now contains a Prevention Hub Orientation. The Prevention Hub is the online reporting system for SUPP grantees. The Prevention Hub Orientation is optional, although you are strongly encouraged to complete it if you will be responsible for entering Hub data. If you choose to bypass the HUB Orientation at this time, you must still launch the course and complete the first four slides before you can move on to complete the IISUP II evaluation and post-test. You may return to the course at any time and can complete the modules at your own pace.

This virtual classroom training introduces Illinois Department of Human Services (IDHS) Substance Use Prevention Program (SUPP) providers to the prevention specialist’s role in service delivery. Participants will be introduced to strategies for program planning, capacity-building, implementation, and evaluation. Participants will also learn about their role in prevention, including an exploration of ethical issues related to their personal and professional conduct.

Note: All SUPP providers are required to complete this course. Participants must complete IISUP I prior to participation in IISUP III.
