By Keren Etkin Gerontologist & Creator, TheGerontechnologist.com

73% of older adults rank healthcare professionals among their top three most influential resources for buying decisions– including technology. But as an eldercare professional, do you feel confident recommending tech solutions for the common challenges of aging? If not, you might benefit from specialized tech training for eldercare professionals.

As technology becomes an essential pillar of successful aging-in-place, being able to provide specialized, expert guidance represents a significant new dimension of professional value. For those looking to lead in 2026, obtaining an AgeTech Certification (a.k.a gerontechnology certification) is a competitive advantage.

The Reality: Bridging the “Digital Chaos” Gap

Today, the average American over 50 owns seven digital devices, and 55% of family caregivers are already using tech to manage care. However, research confirms that “Digital Chaos” is a top barrier for adoption.

This is where a trusted professional comes in – to help families see through the noise. This requires a specific type of AgeTech certification for elder care professionals that moves beyond basic digital literacy and into strategic implementation.
