National Council of Certified Dementia Practitioners



Dear CADDCT Trainers

Please note that NCCDP application rates went up this year . This is the first increase in 14 years and the increases are very modest. The new rates will be reflected in the new NCCDP student handout notebooks as well as in the web site.

I have included the new rates and attached the revised CDP application, Corporate and Association discount forms.

Our new curriculum will be ready for download beginning January 15th 2018. The cost is $25.00 for the ADDC Power Point curriculum download which you will download and save to the jump drive provided to you in class. This you will purchase through the instructor only part of the web site.

The new student handout notebook and the trainer notebook are each $25.00 plus shipping. Once in the instructor only part of the web site, go to Bulk Orders. You are now in the printers site. Create an account unless you already have one. The passcode is MakeMyDay.

If you do not download the new ADDC Power Point Curriculum within 30 days of the January 15th 2018 release date, the ADDC Power Point Curriculum download will be $450.00.

 If you took the CADDCT class in 2017 during the months of September, October, November, December or January 2018, please email me at nccdpcorporate@ and we will provide both the download and the instructor manual and student handout notebook to you at no costs.  Please include in the email, your name, CADDCT number, Date of your CADDCT class and your work address. 

Once the new curriculum comes out, cease using the old curriculum. 

Also, the curriculum is available in Spanish.  You are also welcome to audit at no charge any CADDCT class, just let us know you are coming. 

Please note many companies are requiring all vendors who service their company have our ADDC training and have the CDP certification. You should meet with your owners or Administrators to discuss this. If your vendors have not received the training, with permission from your Administrator or owners, you should reach out to them. If you are an independent consultant, you should reach out to the vendors. Providing Dementia education to vendors makes perfect sense and is long overdue.

Many of these vendors provide hands on services to your customers and some behind closed doors but yet have received no dementia education which leave them ill prepared to deal with communication issues or behavior concerns.

New Rates:

The Corporate discount form and rate is now $35.00 pp and there is a $30.00 shipping handling fee. This corporate discount form can only be given to the administrator or owner. Never given to the employee. This is a group rate which is for 3 or more applications.

We also will honor this form for CDP group renewals and the group rate is $35.00 pp and there is no shipping fee because we email the new certifications to the individual employee.  The corporate discount form is only to be given when the training takes place at the corporation office and is for employees only. This form is also available in the instructor only part of the web site. Be sure to sign the form. Be sure to post private corporate trainings on the calendar as sold out. Be sure to send in the sign in sheet.

The association discount form is now $35.00 pp and is given to the attendee at state or national association conferences, who attend the ADDC seminar. The attendee should be instructed to submit their application to the NCCDP within 30 days to honor the $35.00 pp rate. The association is never to collect the CDP application nor fees associated with the CDP application. Please be sure to sign the form. Be sure to post the conference on the calendar and send to NCCDP the sign in form.

The individual CDP application rate is now $125.00. If you have notebooks from 2017 and are still using them, please replace the CDP application with the one enclosed in this email. 

The new CADDCT renewal application fee which includes the CDP certification is $150.00. 

The new late fee is $35.00. The CDP pin is $12.00.

Since January 1st many people have renewed online and the feedback regarding the rate increases has only been positive. 

Please be aware that the ADDC seminar is now CEU approved for Nurses and the information and the fees associated are included in the back of the 2016 student handout notebooks as well as the new notebooks coming out in 2018.  

If you will be offering the CEUS, you will NOT put the information on the certificate of attendance and you will NOT collect the nursing CEUS fees.

The CEU packet found in the back of the student handout notebook gives instructions on what the nurse needs to do to obtain the 7 CEUS from the CEU network.

You as the trainer will need to email your resume to the CEU network.

The CEUs are approved for most states.

Please go to the instructor only section and download the CEU packet from the CEU Network which gives information on what you as the trainer will provide to the CEU network.

Please remember to post the seminars on the calendar. This includes private trainings and state and national conferences, marketing events and seminars you are advertising for a fee.

Your sign in sheets are due within 7 days of the class. Please be sure your students include their email address. 

We have a new certification coming out in January so watch for information and announcement in the January 2018 e-publication.

We have collaborated with ICCOTP and if you provide online training other than our ADDC curriculum we encourage you to get the COTP Certified Online Training Professional certification from ICCOTP. Our members do get a 50 percent off. Typically they only hold one online training per month. Information is under membership benefits and in the January e- magazine coming out next week. 

Don’t forget to download NCCDP Alzheimer’s disease And Dementia Care Staff Education Week Feb 14th to 21st all complimentary staff in-services under membership services. You are welcome to provide these state of the art in-services to your staff, families or referral sources.
