Diabetes is a growing health problem in rich and poor countries alike. While diabetes is a common condition that affects millions of lives, most people are unaware that they have diabetes. The prevalence is increasing fast, and the number of obese individuals worldwide is projected to reach as much as 1.1 billion by 2030. Along with the increasing numbers of obese people, the prevalence of type-2 diabetes is increasing tremendously worldwide due to the westernized lifestyle. However, the sensitivity of the individual to a westernized lifestyle and development of diabetes appears to be much dependent on his or her genetic risk factors. As diabetes is associated with a high rate of morbidity and mortality, and thereby accounts for a large part of the public health care expenses, there is a great interest in diabetes research to improve knowledge, prevention and treatment of diabetes.
This clinically-focussed online course offered by eMediversity is designed to equip doctors with the knowledge and skills to deliver a first rate diabetes service. This internationally recognised qualification focuses on the person with diabetes and supports the improvement of care. The course recognises the contribution of the whole diabetes team and prepares professionals for specialist practice.
