Technical Overview:                
Faculty at Johns Hopkins University and University of Pittsburgh have collaborated in creating 13 self-paced online educational modules to educate nursing staff and other populations on alcohol screening and intervention techniques. Videos, questions and assessment tools are included in the learning modules.
