The Avila Institute of Gerontology prides itself on its quality educational programs on Gerontology and related topics.


For those interested in the latest education and updates in Dementia Care, we are offering Empowering Your Staff Towards Resident Care. Just added are dates for our new 3 hour seminar Cultural Diversity - A Challenge or a Solution to Retention.

Avila Institute of Gerontology will bring quality programs to you
In the last few years AIG has noticed that it has become harder and harder
for faclities, caregivers and staff to find the time and resources to attend continuing education seminars and workshops. Therefore, AIG will come to you. You supply the students and AIG will supply expert speakers with the most up-to-date information that will enrich the lives of your elders and their caregivers.
