I was able to take my 8 hour alcohol class online in just a few short nights before starting my job. I was so excited that I was finally going to be working in the court system. I had taken many legal classes in college, and I had applied for many different jobs, but to my dismay I did not get hired at any of them.
I was feeling very discouraged about my decision to take law as my major, when I finally got called by the court system to work as a legal transcriber. I was very excited. I was required to take an alcohol education class before I started, so I found a great class on the Internet and signed up right away. It was inexpensive, and didn't take long to finish. I printed out the certificate of completion and was told to show up the following day at my new job.

How Alcohol Awareness Classes Helped My Dad
Both my parents have struggled with alcohol problems throughout my whole childhood. My mother stopped drinking when I was in high school but my dad continued to drink even though he tried to quit.
It got to be really embarrassing, and I never wanted to have friends over. He would make a big fool of himself and make my friends uncomfortable. My mom finally had enough, and got a divorce from him several years after she stopped drinking.
A few years ago, I signed him up for an alcohol awareness class. When he told me he took it, I didn't want to get my hopes up. I figured he'd stop drinking for a little while but this was his pattern before starting back up again.
For some reason, the online alcohol class really helped him. He's attending AA meetings every day and has a sponsor helping him stay sober. He says he hasn't had a drink since and is determined to turn his life around.

My Class Was Quick and Easy
I had to complete an alcohol awareness class in order to start a new job. I was excited about this position at the hospital helping people who suffer from substance abuse. However, when I was hired for the job, I was unprepared for the number requirements I had to go through before I was actually able to start work.
One of the requirements was to complete a 24 hour online alcohol class. I was instructed to find the class on my own, complete it, then review it. I turned to the Internet and found several sites that offered such classes. Some of the sites looked pretty cheesy so I found a site that had good information and looked professional. Even though the class cost more, I felt it was superior to the less expensive classes. I actually learned a lot and will recommend this class to my patients.
In fact, after my review of the class and my suggestion to use it for educational purposes, my new boss already complimented me on my initiative and good ideas.

Make Money Faster by Taking an Alcohol Awareness Class
How, you might ask, does learning about alcohol, drugs and addiction possibly turn into a way to make yourself money? Seems more like a waste of time, doesn't it?
Well the truth of the matter is that if you have a problem with alcohol and drugs, you are probably spending a lot of time with those activities (being high, drunk or hungover) than you are trying to better yourself. The great thing about a drug and alcohol awareness class is that you will learn about the harmful effects that drugs and alcohol have on your body (including the brain). You will also be given techniques to stop drinking and using drugs.
Once you have shrugged the drug and alcohol demon off your back you are free to focus on what you really want to do. Not only will you save money that is not being spent on alcohol and drugs, but you will open yourself to your true goals and ambitions. That is your personal success and the ability to make money for yourself!

I Need a MIP Class for My Son
My son was just caught with some beer last night and was charged with being a minor in possession of alcohol. Now, he will have to to to court in a week and whatever else that follows.
I am very disappointed and upset with him. He needs to take a class because he won't listen to me and he is making poor decisions. The school counselor recommended a good online minor in possession class. He believes taking a class will make him "look better" in court, but I am afraid he is trying to manipulate the situation rather than becoming more aware of his behavior.
It is important that my son learns that underage drinking is against the law even if his friends are doing it. Punishing him hasn't done much so now he must face the legal system and he is responsible for all costs associated with this. I did not raise him to break the law.

Information About Alcohol Awareness Classes
Alcohol classes can be found online and in formal classroom settings. The type of setting that an individual chooses will often depend on their personal preference and situation. The information that is contained in these alcohol classes will provide the student with information about how alcohol affects them personally, how it affects their family and friends as well as the community as a whole.
Although many people may not realize all of the consequences surrounding the abuse of alcohol, these classes can concentrate on the details of what occurs when alcohol is being misused. The effects of alcohol can range from the person having anger management problems when under the influence to drunk driving, which is the cause of many fatalities.
These classes are also promoted on college and university campuses since common social trends involve large amounts of students drinking heavily at parties and other types of social events.

Alcohol Abuse and Being Informed with an Alcohol Class
It does not matter where a person lives, social status or the job title that they hold, alcohol abuse can be a major problem and issue in anyone's life. This problem impacts young children, teenagers, adults, and elderly persons as well. It can destroy the lives of those who drink as well as the family members who love them.
Alcohol is a social drug and used in many social and even religious gatherings such as weddings, retirement parties, sporting events, Valentines day, etc. Alcohol is not only used socially, but it is often used throughout the week to unwind from work or celebrate with friends.
Alcohol use is so normalized that it can be difficult to discern who has a serious problem. This is a great reason to take an alcohol awareness class. If you think you or someone you love may be using alcohol too frequently or uncontrollably, taking a class online can help to provide valuable information that they may need.
Learning about alcohol abuse and alcoholism is crucial so people become more aware of their own behaviors with regards to drinking as well as the devastating consequences of letting it get out of control. In a culture of indulgence, it is best to start with good habits.

Going to an Alcohol Awareness Class
If you are taking an alcohol awareness class then you have the unique opportunity to ask yourself some valuable questions. Namely, how much does alcohol really affect your life?
It seems that when you are in the midst of your life it is difficult to step back and evaluate it. This is more true when the questions revolve around your drinking because many set up a lifestyle where drinking is common and normalized. For example, wine enthusiasts drink to be more educated on special grapes and sports fans like to believe drinking is a part of the game's milieu. Heavy drinkers and alcoholics who create a drinking lifestyle, often go unnoticed.
Take some time out and take an online alcohol class. With some dedicated class time to this specific issue you can be more objective and better determine how much your drinking is messing with your life. Maybe it's not that big of a deal. Then again, it would be best if you were honest about your habits.

An Alcohol Class to Help You Understand if You Are an Alcoholic
An alcohol awareness class can give you valuable insight into whether or not you are an alcoholic. After all, it isn't easy calling yourself one for a number of reasons. The first being that no one wants to be called an alcoholic.
Growing up we've often encountered one and they typically were not the best role models. Some were overly friendly, or acted weird. Others were fun until they drank too much and became good examples of what not to be. We would hate admitting being "one of them".
The second reason it isn't easy calling your self an alcoholic is because no one seems to know for sure what an alcoholic is. We all have varying definitions. Even amongst the alcoholic community you may get three different answers if you ask three different people. Regardless, an alcohol awareness class can give you some valuable insight into what an alcoholic might be and if you fit that description. It is good information to have if you find alcohol becoming a central theme of your life.

It is Never Too Late for an Alcohol Class
I am sure you have heard the saying "better late than never." This most certainly is true when it comes to taking an alcohol class. Regardless of how much you drink and how far your addiction has progressed, an alcohol class is always a good step in your rehabilitation process.
As a counselor for both in-class and online alcohol classes I see students in every aspect of the spectrum when it comes to drinking.
If you are a teenager just experimenting with alcohol, an alcohol class could be helpful. If you think you may be drinking too much, take an alcohol class. If you know you drink too much but might have doubts as to whether your drinking really is a problem, take an alcohol class.
If you know you are an alcoholic and may not be in denial but are in hiding, take an alcohol class. If you prefer to maintain total anonymity there are online alcohol classes too.

I Need a MIP Class for My Child
As a parent of four teen boys, I expected that sooner or later one of them would get into some type of trouble. I was not prepared, however, to have two of the boys get caught with beer in their trunk. Thank goodness they were not drinking and driving but just having the beer was enough to get them arrested.
My husband and I decided to let them stew overnight in jail. Then, I gave him the privilege of bonding them out. Now, that most of the experience is behind us, they have been ordered to participate in alcohol classes and do some community service to pay back their fines. We found a minor in possession class online. After consulting with the judge and their probation officer, it was agreed that these classes would satisfy the requirement.
I took the class with them for information's sake and found it to be highly educational. The boys have finished and are now off the hook with the legal community. However, now that we are better educated, we will continue discussing this matter openly at home.

He Has Decided to Change by Taking an Alcohol Class
My husband has decided to change the way that he has been living. He is finally recognizing that he has a drinking problem. I am relieved, I was almost ready to leave him because I could not take it anymore. It took his arrest for driving while drunk (DUI) to make him see that he was drinking too much.
He barely stayed out of jail. He lost his license for a year and has to do community service. He is also required to take alcohol classes. I think that those have made a bigger difference than anything. The classes he is taking are available online and he will go into the room and close the door. When he comes out, I can tell that the class are making an impact. He is apologizing to me regularly and beginning to admit that his drinking was out of control.

Taking My Alcohol Classes Online
Everyone has their moments of weakness and shame. One of mine in the last few years was that I got in trouble for alcohol possession. I was a minor at the time, so to get busted by the cops really complicated my life. It did make me think about things in the long run which is good. Drinking isn't a joke. You could end up behind the wheel of a car and seriously hurting someone or yourself.
I'm glad they allowed me to take my alcohol classes online. It satisfied the court requirements, which was a big help. Taking a class in person would have caused me interfered with my job and college courses. It's great that out of all this at least they didn't want to ruin my life. They just wanted to help me by teaching me about my behavior and decisions. It's strange but now I can see more clearly how much I was drinking and how much denial I was in.
I don't know if this was one of those those times when you feel grateful for a terrible situation, but being caught, despite how humiliating it was, feels like it has seriously changed my path and I am a better person as a result.

My Cousin Needs an Alcohol Awareness Class
My cousin is 25 years old and she has had a drinking problem from 10 years. My cousin and I are really close and we talk about this problem frequently. I keep telling her to get some professional help but she's reluctant. She says that she wants to, but that she feels embarrassed and is also worried about how much it will cost. I told her there are online alcohol classes that are very affordable and private. If she took an awareness class online she would know exactly how much it would cost and could take it in the privacy of her own home. I really hope my cousin seriously considers this because I can tell that her alcohol problem is getting worse.

An Alcohol Class is a Great Way to Kick off the New Year
An alcohol class may be right for you at this time of your life. Have you resolved to cut down on your drinking? Maybe you find yourself drinking more than you would like. Is alcohol causing problems for you with your health, at home, or work? Or are you just feeling the need to cut back and "detox" yourself from over indulgence.
An alcohol problem can become an addiction. Both can negatively impact your health, relationships, and goals. Be pro-active and fearless by seeking out help for yourself (even if you don't think you need it). Get educated and armed with information.
If attending an in-person alcohol class is not right for you, then you can consider taking an online alcohol class. With an online class, you may be able to get the assistance you need to fit your own unique personal situation. Why not get the support you need to keep your resolutions strong!

He Got Caught Now He Has to Take a Drug Alcohol Class
I have a son in high school who like a lot of high school boys is testing his boundaries and seeing what he can get away with. Last week was a holiday party and he decided that he was going to throw a party at a local hotel.
When the party was broken up by the police, he got a citation for being under age and under the influence of alcohol. The citation came with a pretty hefty fine for someone with no income. It also requires him to attend an alcohol awareness class over two weekends of the month.
I am glad this happened and think it will be a good experience for him. He needs to learn that there are consequences for his actions and that when you make poor decisions you will get poor results. He is really upset about the whole situation but mostly, he is embarrassed. I suggested he take an online alcohol class for privacy but also so he could start immediately.

I Learned About My Alcohol Behavior in an Online Alcohol Class
If I am to be honest, I did not really think I had a drinking problem. Yes, I enjoyed a few drinks after work, and drank more freely on the weekends but so did my friends. There were times when I drank too much, but I never considered myself "a drunk" like my father.
One particular Friday night, we were celebrating a big merger when a few drinks turned into more drinks and I was arrested for public intoxication. Part of my sentence was to enroll in an alcohol awareness class.
This turned out to be a problem because no one offered any courses near me; and the closest one was a three hour round trip drive. I was not sure what to do until a friend suggested that I find an online alcohol class about alcohol awareness.
Not only was the price lower then what I would have paid in person but it was convenient and well written. It also met my sentencing requirements but more importantly, in the privacy of my own home- the class helped me open my eyes. I was able to be more honest with myself and see why I was abusing alcohol. It got me to turn around my life.

How Alcohol Awareness Classes Taught Me How Not to Destroy Myself
I used to drink now and again when I was younger, but I didn't care for the taste that much. It gradually got to the point where I didn't even go to the bars with my friends. Several months ago, a good friend of mine died and I started drinking again just to make the pain disappear.
I ended up doing some stupid things that got me in trouble with the law. I am so thankful that a judge looked at the cause rather than the effects of my actions. He ordered that I undergo alcohol awareness classes. I was so grateful for this, and I ended up learning a lot about myself in the process.
The online alcohol class helped me understand that it is better to deal with grief than try and bury it in alcohol and destructive behavior. Not only does that not work, but it is not honoring my friend either. I still miss him deeply, but I know he would be proud that I'm longer destroying myself because of him.
