Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Illinois Alzheimer's and dementia CE requirement?

Illinois Public Act 102-0399, codified at 20 ILCS 2105/2105-365, requires a 1-hour continuing education course on the diagnosis, treatment, and care of individuals with Alzheimer's disease and other dementias for each license renewal period. The requirement applies to covered Illinois-licensed healthcare professionals whose practice includes adults age 26 or older. This ANCC-accredited course is designed to satisfy the 1-hour Illinois Alzheimer's and dementia CE requirement.

Does this requirement apply to me if I do not specialize in dementia care or work primarily with older adults?

It may apply if your practice includes adults age 26 or older. The requirement is not limited to professionals who specialize in dementia or geriatric care. Many clinical settings include adults 26 and older, including hospitals, outpatient clinics, emergency departments, and primary care settings. The narrow exception may be practices exclusively serving patients age 25 or younger, such as pediatric-only settings. If you are unsure, confirm with IDFPR or your licensing board.

Does this 1-hour course count toward my total 20 CE hours required for Illinois RN renewal?

Yes. Under 20 ILCS 2105/2105-365, Alzheimer's disease and dementia training may count toward applicable continuing education requirements. For Illinois RNs, this hour generally counts within the 20-hour biennial renewal total rather than being added on top of it. Always verify current rules for your license type with IDFPR or your licensing board.

I am an Illinois pharmacist. Does this course satisfy my requirement and does it report to NABP?

This course satisfies the Illinois Alzheimer's CE requirement for pharmacists, but it does not report to the NABP CPE Monitor.
