The Tobacco Education and Action Module (TEAM) was developed by the Prevention Programs for use by non healthcare front-line workers who wish to assist tobacco users with cessation. Perhaps you are a teacher, counsellor or social worker who often comes into contact with smokers or users of chew tobacco. You may know that the way information is delivered to a tobacco user has a large impact on whether they choose to accept the information or simply tune it out. Would you like to assist them in their efforts to quit tobacco use? The TEAM module will teach you the skills and techniques to help get the quitting message across.

TEAM consists of a main body of information about tobacco use, followed by sections relating specifically to young people and to Aboriginal people. The module also contains plenty of easily-understood 'fast facts' about tobacco use and several Resource Guides to further inform about tobacco, research, use and cessation.
