CME



Advanced Management of Diabetes
Online Interprofessional Certificate Program

Module 2
Care of Vulnerable & Medically
Underserved Populations with Diabetes

 

Improve your diabetes care skills by learning from the experts without the expense of going to a national conference.

The Advanced Management of Diabetes online CME and certificate program provides interprofessional learners with a foundation of knowledge to improve outcomes for their patients and their healthcare systems. Each self-paced module includes presentations and simulations by over 25 leading experts (from endocrinologists, physicians, nurse practitioners, pharmacists, psychologists, registered nurses, registered dietitians, and an exercise physiologist, to people with diabetes), covering the core competencies that healthcare practitioners from any discipline can integrate into their practice settings. The course videos and quizzes are accessible 24/7, so that you can learn at your own pace and within your schedule.

Designed for healthcare professionals from all disciplines who are interested in providing high quality diabetes care in the United States, including physicians, nurses, pharmacists, dietitians, health educators and others. Complete modules individually for CE credit or the entire course for CE credit and a certificate. The curriculum is designed to support all learners, and will be especially useful to those who are preparing to obtain or renew their Certified Diabetes Educator (CDE) and Board Certified - Advanced Diabetes Management (BC-ADM) exams.

In this module, you will learn to:
