About Us

NDDTC functions under All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), New Delhi. We provides clinical services and are involved in research activities along with capacity building training programme for medical professionals working in the field of Substance Use Disorders.

Online Course

It is now well established fact that medical treatment forms the cornerstone in management of SUDs.  These online training programs are designed to help all those medical professionals working in the treatment of addictive disorders who do not find time to attend offline training courses.

Resources

We have compiled a list of online resources to help medical professionals working in the area of Substance Use Disorder (SUDs), individuals seeking treatment for SUDs or anyone interested in learning more about Substance Use Disorders in general and the treatment provided.

Why learn about addiction?

Substance Use Disorders (SUDs) is a major public health problem in India. The recent National survey on magnitude of substance use in India shows that alcohol, cannabis and opioids are the three major categories of psychoactive substance used in India. The figures are worrying.

The study also brought out a large gap between demand and availability of treatment services for individuals struggling with Substance Use Disorders (SUDs) in the country.
The vision of this training programmes is to facilitate capacity building by providing easy access to offline as well as online treatment training to the medical officers working in the area of Substance Use Disorders.
The doctor can enrol into the programme after signing up for the course and can access the online programme on her computer from the comfort of his clinic or home. Revisit and ask doubts to the experts.

Dr. Rajinder Dhadwal, Gunjan IRCA, Himachal Pradesh

The course was very compact, updated and to the point, which help me a lot to understand the main pathology and management of substance use disorder. It is more beneficial to me to diagnose the problem and do treat accordingly. I think this should be reach to every medical practitioner working in Drug De-Addiction in our country. The presentation, explanation, voice quality, topic inclusion was excellent. I am very thankful to all the NDDTC-AIIMS team to provide such type of training which is helpful in treatment of drug affected youth of our country in a very effective manner.

Dr. Anil Kumar, Prerna IRCA, Bihar

First of all, let me acknowledge the wonderful experience on the massive open online course in relation with addiction treatment. The one-month course was very effective and it brought me a nice time to learn the updated information regarding the addiction treatment. As I am practising in the same field it gave me refreshment in my knowledge. Let me recognise and thank the NAAT team Dr. Ravindra Rao- the course Co-ordinator, Dr. Rakesh K Chadda –Professor and Chief of NDDTC-AIIMS, and Dr. Virendra Mishra – Director NISD. Very specially, I would like to express my sincere gratitude towards the timely guidance and help by NAAT team in dealing with the technical glitches.

Dr. Sr. Jobis Maria (Dr. Mariamma Thomas), Navadarsanagram IRCA, Kerala

I have been working in the field of de-addiction and rehabilitation for the last 25 years. Looking back after the NDDTC online training program, feel what I was providing was only an apology for the management of addiction disorders!! After the training session I feel, I am better equipped for providing scientific treatment modalities in this devastating problem. Thanks to the entire AIIMS team, the modules were practical, slides were short and clear and the narration’s precise and lucid. Once again thank you and God bless you.

Dr. Joy Francis Vithayathil, Adaart IRCA, Kerala

First of all, I would like to personally thank you and all your team members of NDDTC, AIIMS, New Delhi for giving me an opportunity to be a participant of your online course. It was a very well-coordinated and organised event throughout the course. I have been additionally practising addiction medicine for the last 8 yrs. but after completing this course, it has provided me with in depth knowledge and has made me more confident in my present practise. I also thank all the instructors who have developed this course with great subject knowledge and for being a guiding force to all Doctors in their practise. It's an honour for me to be certified as an Addiction Medicine physician from a prestigious institute like AIIMS Delhi. Also, I would request to make it mandatory for all de addiction centres in India to have a physician certified in this course coz I understand many de addiction centres are managed by non-medical personnel. I thank once again to all for your wonderful contribution to society.

Dr. Pramodh. R.K., Sri Baba Trust and Foundation IRCA, Karnataka

Dr. Rao, a sincere thanks for your valuable sessions. It was a herculean task to concise the vast topics and bring to us in PowerPoint form. Thanks for allowing us to be a part of this training programme. A lot has been taught and it will take a while to put into practice but be assured all will fall into place in due time. Thanks, and God bless!
