title: [Training in addiction medicine].
abstract: The treatment of addiction is a skill. It not only requires the necessary specialist medical knowledge but a wide range of communication skills as well. Both facets are explicitly covered in the two-year postgraduate program on addiction medicine at Radboud University Nijmegen, the Netherlands. In September 2013, this competency-based full-time training will be offered for the fifth time.
