Post-acute providers rely on Care2Learn for a complete curriculum of in-service and CE-approved courses for compliance training that is consistent and conveniently accessible. Care2Learn has a library of more than 770 courses, including over 500 accredited courses, spanning more than 17 disciplines.

We are looking forward to welcoming the Care2Learn employees and clients to the Relias family.”
The combined company’s e-learning solutions and content will serve more than 3,500 organizations and nearly 2 million professionals with the most comprehensive content library and tracking mechanisms available in the market. The combined client base spans independent skilled nursing facilities to large multi-facility organizations, CCRCs, assisted living providers, home health agencies, and therapy and rehabilitation providers.
