The current study draws upon data collected over a 4-year period by a regional addiction technology transfer center (ATTC) to better understand the learning patterns and methods of learning engagement among behavioral health professionals. Training participants were found to be predominately female and ethnically diverse, evenly split on attaining a graduate degree, with a third of the participants possessing less than a 4-year college degree. More than one-half reported working in non-health/non-behavioral healthcare settings. Individuals who attended more ATTC events were found to possess less than a master's degree, work in non-behavioral health settings, and identify as Hispanic or other races. In addition, individuals who initially accessed training through an ATTC conference or online asynchronous learning events were found to become engaged learners.
本研究利用一个地区性成瘾技术转移中心（ATTC）在 4 年时间里收集的数据，旨在更好地了解行为健康专业人员的学习模式和学习参与方法。研究发现，培训参与者主要为女性，且种族多样，在获得研究生学位方面平分秋色，三分之一的参与者拥有不到四年制的本科学位。超过一半的人报告说在非卫生/非行为保健环境中工作。研究发现，参加 ATTC 活动较多的人拥有硕士以下学位，在非行为健康环境中工作，并且自认为是西班牙裔或其他种族。此外，最初通过 ATTC 会议或在线异步学习活动获得培训的人被发现是积极的学习者。
