Assisted living & long-term care: affordable staff training options for the whole community, with NAB-approved administrator CE included.
NAB/NCERS-approved administrator CE

Assisted living and LTC training surveyors accept, at a price that isn’t a second rent payment.

State-mapped annual in-service, dementia and cognitive-impairment hours, medication safety, resident rights, infection control, and NAB-approved continuing education for your administrator, all on one platform that tracks every person against every requirement. Affordable staff training options for every size of community, with the administrator CE that others sell as a $14.50-a-seat monthly add-on built in.

What every facility has to prove

Annual hours, specialty hours, administrator CE: one place

The names change by state (in-service, orientation, dementia hours, Level 1 and Level 2), but the shape is the same everywhere: hours at hire, hours every year, specialty hours for cognitive impairment, and licensure CE for the person whose name is on the license. We map your state’s version and run the cycle.

NAB / NCERS approved

Our administrator continuing education is approved by the National Continuing Education Review Service of the National Association of Long Term Care Administrator Boards: 36.75 participant hours, program approval code 20261214-36.75-A116953-DL, delivered online. NAB credit counts toward NHA, RCAL and HCBS administrator licensure, and on our platform it is included in the facility plan rather than sold as a per-seat add-on. In Maryland we are also on OHCQ’s approved-vendor list for the 20-hour Assisted Living Manager continuing education.

Pricing

Good and inexpensive. That combination is the whole point.

The cheap options hand you a certificate and nothing else. The good option costs $160 to $431 a seat a year before you add administrator CEUs. We built the platform so a whole team, administrator included, trains on one affordable plan. Tell us your headcount and we’ll quote it.

Locked into a per-seat contract that renews itself and doesn’t promise you your own records back? We import your training history and certificates, map them to your state’s requirements, and lock your rate at renewal. Plus 15 hours of setup consulting included.

Beyond the mandate

A full learning platform, not a certificate mill

The mapped hours get you through the survey. The rest of the platform is why facilities stay: a course library of 700-plus titles across senior care, dementia, behavioral health and workplace safety, modern e-learning, and automation that runs the annual cycle for you.

State requirement mapping

Your state’s assisted living and LTC training rules as a live checklist: hours at hire, hours per year, specialty hours by role, administrator CE, each on its own clock, per person.

Live compliance dashboard

Every staff member against every requirement in one grid: green when satisfied, flagged when due, evidence attached. When the surveyor asks, the answer is one screen away.

Auto-enroll, auto-renew, auto-remind

New hires land in their orientation and cognitive-impairment hours on day one. Annual requirements renew themselves. Reminders chase completions so your manager doesn’t have to.

Create and host your own training

Upload your policies, service-plan procedures and emergency plans, or build a course in-platform, and roll them out beside the catalog with the same tracking.

Available in up to 23 languages

Courses deliverable in up to 23 languages with localized narration and assessments, so every aide trains in the language they think in.

Certificates and transcripts that travel

Every completion produces a printable certificate and a permanent transcript. Records export any time; you never lose the ability to prove compliance.

DirectCareChat

An AI care assistant for the floor: staff ask a policy, care or procedure question and get a reliable answer grounded in the trainings they actually took.

How switching works

Three steps from stuck to switched

1

See it for yourself

Reach out for a live demo. We present the platform, then hand you a demo environment with its own login so your administrator, nurse and HR lead can explore it on their own time.

2

We move your records

Our team imports your existing training records and certificates so every staff member’s history is intact on day one. No gap in what you can prove to a surveyor.

3

Start training

Every new facility gets 15 hours of setup consulting: groups, annual cycles, your own policies uploaded, reminders switched on.

It’s 15 hours to set up the next 15 years.
