On-the-Spot (OtS) is an online opportunity for Substance Use Disorders and Recovery Support Services providers to obtain real time input on a variety of behavioral health topics. OtS is an open, one-hour forum guided by participants' questions with responses provided by Mountain Plains ATTC consultants. The goal of OtS is to serve as another tool to increase knowledge, build skills, and change practice through the adoption of evidence-based practices and promising practices.
No registration is required to attend an OtS session. Participants are welcome to join anytime during the one-hour "hotline" forum and can join via phone, PC, or tablet. On-the-Spot is a discussion-based event, not a training or webinar. Continuing Education and/or certificates of attendance for OtS sessions are not available and OtS sessions will not be recorded.
Ongoing Events
1st Monday of every month, 3:00 pm Mountain Time / 4:00 pm Central Time
A common approach in learning any complex skill is to work with experts assisting in the development of competencies. Motivational Interviewing (MI) On-the-Spot offers an opportunity to enhance practitioners’ skills and confidence in the utilization and integration of MI into practice by providing access to subject matter experts to obtain immediate feedback during a one-hour, online, open forum. Bring your questions and join in on the dialogue to increase MI knowledge and change clinical practice approaches through the utilization of an MI style of communication.

Having difficulty applying and/or integrating the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) Criteria? Join this one-hour forum with a knowledgeable ASAM professional who will answer and discuss questions related to: program development; 6-dimensional assessment and treatment planning; continued service, transfer and discharge management; and other topics guided by participant questions. Participants will have the opportunity to share case studies and receive guidance on how to utilize ASAM to make informed decisions across the continuum of care.
Note: At this time, ASAM OtS will be focusing on ASAM 3rd Edition as the ASAM 4th Edition rollout has been slow across states. Questions specifically about ASAM 4th Edition may not be answered until more information about implementation is available.
