CLEARWATER, FL, UNITED STATES, February 17, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- As Illinois continues advancing efforts to strengthen services for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), IntellectAbility is supporting professionals and providers with education designed to improve outcomes, reduce risk, and promote person-centered care.

Several IntellectAbility courses have been approved for Qualified Intellectual Disabilities Professional (QIDP) continuing education (CE) in Illinois, expanding opportunities for practical, evidence-based learning across the state.

Providers and professionals throughout Illinois are navigating evolving system demands, workforce challenges, and budget considerations. In this environment, prevention-focused training and strong clinical decision-making support organizations in delivering safe, effective care. Illinois’ continuing education-approved courses from IntellectAbility are designed to equip QIDPs and support professionals with tools to identify health risks earlier, strengthen person-centered practices, and help prevent avoidable adverse outcomes.

“IntellectAbility is passionate about empowering the IDD workforce with the training and tools they need to improve health, safety, and quality of life for the people they support,” said Dr. Craig Escudé, President of IntellectAbility. “These Illinois CE approvals highlight the value of prevention and person-centered care, and help ensure that QIDPs across the state are equipped with practical, data-informed education that supports both better outcomes and more sustainable care.”
