Registration Process Overview
What is RADT Legacy?
RADT Legacy status applies to any registrant who became a Registered Alcohol Drug Technician (RADT) prior to July 1, 2025. Pursuant to Assembly Bill 2473 and DHCS Behavioral Health Information Notice (BHIN) 25-029, individuals who qualify as RADT Legacy are exempt from certain new education requirements that apply to RADT Trainee I registrants. However, to maintain RADT Legacy status, your registration must remain active.
If your registration expires at any time, you will lose RADT Legacy status and will be required to register as a RADT Trainee I and comply with the new DHCS requirements established under AB 2473 and BHIN 25-029.
