The Assisted Living Federation of America (ALFA) has announced the creation of an accreditation program for assisted living industry professionals as part of its continuing effort to encourage professional training and development within the industry. The program is offered under the auspices of ALFA University, the training arm of ALFA. The national Assisted Living Administrators Certification Program is available for executive directors, assisted living administrators and industry professionals seeking to prepare for administrative positions.
