WHAT IS CAREGIVER CON?
CaregiverCon is a half-day event that closes the CareAcademy Future of Work program. The event brings together people interested in joining the Caregiver profession. A mix of broad-based learning and direct training, CaregiverCon will help accelerate your entry into the profession! You will have the opportunity to complete your initial training together with your peers in a virtual setting. Once complete, we will match you with an agency in your state so you can take the next step on your journey.
THE FUTURE OF HOME CARE STARTS WITH YOU.
WHERE IT ALL STARTED
The COVID-19 pandemic has overwhelmed our healthcare system, put older adults across the country at risk, and destroyed millions of jobs. At the same time, there is a growing shortage for senior care professionals, or “home care heroes,” to help care for this at-risk population. We’re equipping a generation to actually do something about this challenge. As the capstone of our Future of Work campaign launched in June this year, the CareAcademy team is excited to help you accelerate your journey into the caregiving profession!
YOU CAN BE THE NEXT
