Summary: Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) are an epidemic that affect people from all walks of life around the world. Given that there is no cure or highly effective treatment for ADRD, it is a problem that isn't going away any time soon. ADRD is set to be a significant contributor to morbidity and mortality in the 21st century. Worldwide 44 million people live with ADRD, and this figure is expected to reach 135 million by 2050 (ADI, 2013). Due to these projections and growing concern around ADRD, there has been increased attention around building a workforce with the skills to provide high quality care to those with ADRD.
