This course consists of a minimum of 21 hours of interactive education. Students receive information about short- and long-term effects of alcohol and other drugs, alcohol concentration and impairment and Wisconsin OWI-related laws and penalties. Students also complete a Personal Change Plan to help them avoid future problems with impaired driving. The emphasis of Group Dynamics is on education and changing impaired driving behavior, not on the treatment of addiction.
