About Rule 115

Mastering IDHS Rule 115 is the definitive online preparation course for Illinois providers operating Community Integrated Living Arrangements (CILA). It was built specifically to close the gap between regulatory knowledge and real-world survey readiness — a gap that leaves far too many capable providers vulnerable on BALC survey day.

This course is designed for CILA Administrators, Qualified Intellectual Disabilities Professionals (QIDPs), program coordinators, and new providers who need a structured, reliable path through the full breadth of IDHS Rule 115. Whether you are preparing for your first BALC survey or sharpening skills after a difficult review cycle, every module has been engineered with your real compliance challenges in mind.

The curriculum spans 8 in-depth modules, each paired with a dedicated video lesson and 30 targeted multiple-choice practice questions — 240 questions in total. Topics range from the foundational framework of Rule 115 and individual rights protections, through personnel and ISP requirements, health and safety standards, documentation protocols, and financial compliance, culminating in a full-length BALC survey simulation.

The course is hosted on coursesandall.com, powered by Kajabi, and built by experienced Illinois compliance professionals who have spent years navigating, auditing, and training within the IDHS regulatory environment. Our goal is straightforward: give every Illinois CILA provider the confidence, knowledge, and practice they need to walk into any survey fully prepared.
