Training for Care Management Plus
The Care Management Plus Curriculum includes 2
days intensive training and subsequent 8 weeks of online instruction.
The first two days are an intensive jump-start to
the core competencies and include technical training for the Care
Manager Tracking Software. The rest of the Care Management Plus
Curriculum is taught online over 8 weeks, and each week’s material can
be reviewed at the convenience of the student. Learning Modules,

organize, prioritize, and implement suggested self-management
strategies

overcome or eliminate these when possible
- Coordinate resources to ensure that necessary
services are provided at the most appropriate level of care and at
the appropriate time
- Identify patient situations at-risk for
