interested in making a change in their tobacco use? Could you help them if they said yes? This course will introduce the participant to best practice information about nicotine addiction, brief tobacco interventions, pharmacotherapy and a variety of tools and supportive counseling techniques to support the tobacco user in achieving their goal of quitting or reducing their tobacco use or simply staying comfortable in places where they can’t smoke. This course is not considered a pre-requisite for the Certified Tobacco Educator designation. Vaping and Shisha: What’s Trending in Tobacco? Presenter: Kari Jesswein & Jennifer Pollard Jan 24 Time: 9:00 4:00 – Mar 29 9:00 4:00 Time: – Apr 11 Time: 9:00 4:00 – Have you heard about vaporizers or electronic cigarettes? How about Shisha or hookah? Many of the clients you work with probably have and most of them believe that these products are harmless. These two new products have become increasingly popular in the last few years and their use has become more widespread in the community. These harmful and mostly unregulated products appear to be falling through the cracks of our tobacco policies and legislation, don’t appear to be successful cessation aids and may be undoing much of the prevention work that has been done in the tobacco community. This session will provide you with the most current information about what we know - and what we don't know - about these emerging trends in the tobacco world.
