Many will most probably continue on to seek their CASAC-T (credential in alcoholism and substance abuse counseling-trainee) offered by the State of New York, or the SUNY Niagara certificate program, Chemical Dependency Counseling, the completion of which qualifies one to sit for the NYS CASAC-T exam.
