- Many certified life care planners are registered nurses, and while this is not a requirement for the profession, a background in health care, social work, project management, psychology, or some combination of these is required.
- Some colleges, such as the University Of Florida, offer a pre-certification program for life care planning. Students often can choose from residential or online courses, designed to prepare them to take certified life care planner training courses and ultimately to take the certified life care planning exam.
- Students enrolled in certified life care planning training will be required to demonstrate competency in elder and pediatric care management, psychological and psychiatric disorders, rehabilitation, and related topics. Courses are a combination of clinicals and written work, and students in online programs have the option to complete their on-site clinical training at local facilities.
