CE Courses for Assisted Living / RCFE Administrators (CA Only)

CareerSmart® Learning is an approved vendor of continuing education for certified RCFE Administrators in California (Vendor #2000386-740-2). Certified RCFE Administrators in California are required to complete 40 hours of continuing education (CE) every 2 years. At least 8 of the 40 hours must be related to dementia care, and at least 4 hours must be on Laws & Regulations. Also, if you have not already taken it as part of your initial certification or renewal, all RCFE Administrators must complete 1 hour of LGBT Sensitivity training.

Per California Department of Social Services regulations, navigation within these courses is restricted in that each slide must be viewed in its entirety before advancing to the next slide. Learners must view each slide and click the next button to advance in the course.

During the COVID-19 State of Emergency, CCLD had set a statewide waiver that approved certified RCFE Administrators to complete all 40 hours of continuing education online; this waiver is now expired, and beginning March 1, 2023, at least 20 of the 40 hours are required to be completed in-person. Our online courses can conveniently be taken at any time upon enrollment, anywhere you have internet access. Please note that Community Care Licensing Division does not permit learners to complete more than 10 hours of continuing education in 1 calendar day.

Certificates for each course completion must be sent to CDSS for renewal along with a completed LIC 9214 and associated renewal fee.
