Welcome to the California Outcomes Measurement System Treatment (CalOMS Tx) Web-based training.

In January 2006, the California Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs (ADP) implemented the new CalOMS Tx statewide alcohol and other drug data collection and management system. The data submitted to CalOMS will help build a comprehensive picture of how clients function in the areas of: alcohol and drug use, legal, employment/education, family/social, physical and psychological problems. The data that counties and providers collect and submit will play a critical role in contributing to the improvement of substance abuse treatment programs. In addition to telling the story of substance abuse and recovery in California, the CalOMS Tx system provides performance measurement information for the federally required reporting of National Outcome Measures (NOMS).

This training is intended to be convenient and to expedite the learning experience while providing an understanding of how to successfully collect and submit CalOMS Tx data. We are excited about using web technology as a “24/7” on-demand teaching platform for all California counties and providers. Access to this training is available through your county.

We encourage your feedback and hope our Web-based training supports your quest for useful and empowering information.
