Online CASAC Hybrid Home Study is here— Forget Classes and Webinars.
In the past, when you wanted to pursue a career as an addiction professional, you had to hustle.
I bet most of you had to get out of work and hustle to a training facility, eat fast food, worry about your children, and other responsibilities at home or work.
The class got out at 9:00 PM, and you had to hustle home again. If you didn’t work, you sat thru 8 hours days of training with little to no breaks.
Having to absorb 350 hours of training with 25 -30 classmates jammed in a room was not conducive to learning.
Then COVID-19 put all our lives on pause, but addiction prospered.
The addiction recovery field found a workaround with telehealth and training programs switched over to webinars.
However, the webinars are still packed with 25-30 students, scheduled at certain times, and —most often— causes you to skip meals, rest, and time with your family. Not to mention sitting in a Zoom Meeting for 8 hours a day.
When you choose Educational Enhancement and our online CASAC home study program, you put your addiction counselor professional development in your hands.
You can begin your career and take the 350-hour OASAS —approved CASAC training or take your 60 renewal clock hours without distraction or time constraints.
Educational Enhancement wants to give you control of your future and let you study when and where you want.
Guidance from professional addiction counselors is available to help answer questions about training and course material, plus how to apply the knowledge you learn.
Choose Educational Enhancement, and we will help shape you into a culturally competent, skilled addiction professional.
Need a scholarship? Since 2002, Educational Enhancement has worked directly with ACCES-VR (Adult Career and Continuing Education Services-Vocational Rehabilitation) to provide individuals with disabilities the opportunity to pursue a career in addictions counseling.

What Students are Saying…
I’m probably one of the first students trained for the 350 hours of training. I was confident when I went for my exam and passed on my first try. I have been using them for re-credentialing since. Everyone I have referred has been very happy with the Educational Enhancement’s CASAC Training and Renewal program.
I have been looking for online CASAC at your pace for more than two years. I came across this program last year, and I am so glad that, as a full-time worker, I can do this course at my own pace and in my comfort zone at an affordable price compared to what colleges will take. Thank you all for making this course available for people like me. Looking forward to achieving excellent knowledge from this program. Thanks
My stepsons’ struggles with drugs and alcohol ended badly. So, I decided to become a
CASAC addiction counselor to make a difference. I was fortunate to discover Educational
Enhancement’s online addiction counseling training. Their mission is to “ENCOURAGE.
EDUCATE. EMPOWER.” And, they exceeded their promise with an approved, web-based
education and training program that embraces learning principles. It made learning fun and
efficient. Their training included modules containing
workbooks, PDFs, links to resources, and videos. And their test questions helped me feel
prepared to pass the CASAC exam. Thanks to their support, I completed my
coursework ahead of schedule.
I’ve spent a substantial portion of my career in the knowledge business, teaching college and
grad students, accountants, and attorneys. Additionally, as a director of training and
development for my Behavioral Consulting firm, I’ve trained many employees. So, I’m
speaking from experience when I say that Maria Mendez, John Makohen, and their Educational
Enhancement team is doing a great job changing the world — one addiction counselor at a
time. BRAVO!
What can I say about Educational Enhancement? They helped me to become a CASAC. The training programs were informative, easy for me to understand and the trainers were excellent. I still call them when I have a question about training programs, re-credential requirements, and what’s new in the field. I highly recommend Educational Enhancement to anyone seeking CASAC training.
Educational Enhancement was a great choice for my CASAC education and training! Overall, the training setup made a lot of sense to me. It flowed smoothly, especially with all the information-packed inside. I never felt overwhelmed. I did well on the tests, even in the areas I thought I would struggle in.

More Student Testimonials…
I recently finished OASAS CASAC Section 4 with Educational Enhancement CASAC online. The classes are wonderfully written out and are easy to understand. You can feel the passion for helping others succeed put into this work. When I asked questions about the information, Johnny was quick to reply and help me out. The trainings were set up so I could work at my own speed -between work and school. The information went above and beyond and taught in a way that sticks in your mind. Thank you. I will come back for renewal hours once I’m a CASAC.
As part of my application for CASAC certification, I participated in 15 hours of additional training through Educational Enhancement. I found the courses very well-prepared and delivered and received important information from them very useful in my work in addiction counseling. I appreciate the professionalism and efficiency of setting up the training needed and processing my completion certificate. I will certainly recommend this site and these courses to my peers and the director of my program.
