About the Course
Built on the success of our Postgraduate Diploma and MSc Diabetes Courses, we have been approached by many healthcare professionals interested in a condensed course. In response to this demand, we are pleased to announce a 12 week Mastercourse to provide knowledge and skills in diabetes, which may also be a footing for further education. In 2016, the World Health Organisation (WHO) Global report on diabetes estimated that 422 million people had known diabetes in 2014. With improved understanding of the pathophysiology of the condition and the rapidly emerging therapies, there is no better time to improve your knowledge and clinical skills to tackle this pandemic. Our objective of the Mastercourse is to help you develop your clinical skills in this rapidly evolving disease area. The course is delivered as a structured 12-week online programme, completed with a final online exam.
Our course has been developed to respond to the needs of health professionals to have specialist, evidenced-based training in diabetes education. With the diabetes landscape having changed considerably over the last twenty years it is vital that we provide a comprehensive curriculum which is fundamental to the education of well prepared and clinically effective health professionals. Our course does just this! Improve patient care and career opportunities.
