Professional Education


Behind every person with Alzheimer's disease there are people dedicated to helping. The Alzheimer Society offers many training options for professionals and health workers. We can also design individualized training sessions to accommodate your staff's needs.

Professional Education Topics and Learning Outcomes

Alzheimer Society staff is available to help by presenting in-service education about issues regarding Alzheimer's disease and another dementia. On-site presentations can be offered in seminar format, as a series or in brief topics. Sessions can be tailored to the learning needs of your group or to a course outline.
