PGNO’s Stages Series provides specialized education on gambling, problem gambling, and gambling disorder. Training attendees will learn about the gambling service system and how to implement treatment and prevention strategies within the communities they serve. FY24 training dates are currently available, registration is open.

PGNO also offers supervision for clinicians that are licensed through the Ohio Chemical Dependency Board and are working towards their Gambling Endorsement. It is designed for those who do not have a local supervisor that is competent in treating gambling disorder. This program is open to individuals that have already received their Preliminary Endorsement and will guide them in receiving 100 hours of direct clinical service needed to apply for the Renewable Endorsement.
