Chemical Dependency Professionals

The Chemical Dependency Professional Certification, can only be used while working as a an employee of an approved agency--not by persons in private practice. Obtaining the CDP requires satisfactory completion of a course, passing a national examination and completing 2,500 hours of supervised internship.  Candidates with a Masters Degree only need to do 1,500 hours of internship.  The requirements for an approved supervisor are different that those for mental health counselor supervisors and require that the supervisor be a CDP.
