LeadingAge Colorado provides the only online 40-hour assisted living administrator training course in Colorado. We offer this virtual service to administrators and leaders who wish to stay current with licensing requirements while also adhering to COVID-19 stay-at-home and safe-at-home orders. As many individuals are introduced to LeadingAge Colorado for the first time at our 2022 Annual Conference and Exhibition, we invite those in the Colorado Assisted Living Association and beyond to learn more about this flexible, simple coursework! 

Colorado Assisted Living State Requirements 

According to the revised Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment’s (CDPHE) licensing regulations governing assisted living residences, LeadingAge's 40-hour virtual course is required for assisted living administrators. However, assisted living administrators are not the only individuals who can benefit from this course. CDPHE recommends the curriculum for owners, administrator designees, CEO’s, COO’s, resident services directors, nurses, social wokers, and marketing/admissions staff.

Assisted Living Courses Applicant Requirements

We receive quite a few common questions about course availability, requirements, and details. First off, assisted living administrators must  be 21 years of age in order to be eligible for this course. Additionally, course students should possess a high school diploma or equivalent, and have at least one year of experience supervising the delivery of personal care services that include activities of daily living. Falling short of that one year requirement? No problem. Administrators interested in the course have the option to instead demonstrate that he or she meets one or more of the qualifications listed here.
