Presentation
The aim of the training is to acquire and improve the knowledge and skills of health professionals by helping stop and manage smoking in various walks of life.
The teaching relates to tobacco and its use. It includes aspects of `Health Promotion¿, `Public Health¿ and legislation. It prepares for specialised clinical work in stopping smoking and research in this field. Relationships and similarities with other addictions are also addressed.
Special conditions of access / students concerned
This training is aimed at holders of degrees in medicine, nursing, midwifery, pharmacy, physical therapy, dentistry, ergotherapy, and dieticians in reference to article 78 of the INAMI, and also to holders of Masters in Psychology and students in their final year of these disciplines.
