NAB Credit for ACHE Educational Programs

ACHE recognizes the need to support the continuing education needs of our affiliates and has long provided credit for our members and Fellows working in long-term care. We are a registered sponsor of professional continuing education with the National Association of Boards of Examiners of Long Term Care Administrators (NAB).

In November 2009, there were major changes in both the cost and the process of providing approved continuing education credit through NAB. Largely due to the huge commitment of staff time to comply with these new procedures, ACHE can no longer secure pre-approval for all of our courses.

However, ACHE is committed to providing educational opportunities for the Long Term Care (LTC) community. With the assistance of a new committee composed of individuals who are both ACHE Fellows and NAB members, 16 face-to-face seminars were selected as being the most relevant to LTC professionals. This process will be repeated each year.

Credit will be given for programs presented at the ACHE Congress on Healthcare Leadership in 2012.

Only the following ACHE Seminars have been approved for NAB credit through June 2012.
