Description

India currently lacks structured training programmes for educating and training nutritionists and registered dieticians as diabetes educators. This Diabetes Educator Online Advanced Certificate Course addresses this gap, providing comprehensive and dynamic training to meet the growing demand for skilled diabetes educators. The course is structured to respond to the evolving field of diabetes education, where the primary care provider is often the patient themselves.

This four-month course includes three months of theory and one month of internship, offering a blend of online learning and practical experience. Developed by experts, the curriculum covers crucial topics such as the pathophysiology of diabetes, behavior modification, oral diabetes drugs, insulin introduction and techniques, and acute and chronic complications of diabetes.

Participants will learn to effectively educate people with diabetes or prediabetes and their caregivers, empowering them with the knowledge and skills needed to manage their condition and prevent complications. Key areas of focus include diet, physical activity, medication management, and monitoring techniques. Evaluation is continuous and includes two workshops with exams, weekly presentations, group activities, and a written evaluation at the end of the internship.

Upon completion, participants will receive certifications for specialised workshops and an advanced certificate in diabetes education, enhancing their professional credentials and preparing them to meet the growing needs of diabetes management.
