Diabetes Core Curriculum Workshop

Providing Diabetes Continuing Education Since 1994!

Thank you to all who attended our conference April 23 - 26th. We appreciated your participation and look forward to seeing you again in the near future.

Are You:

  • A health care professional, with basic diabetes knowledge, interested in learning more about diabetes patient education?
  • Feeling overwhelmed with the information needed to study for professional exams?
  • Already a Certified Diabetes Educator (CDE®) and need to recertify? (** see below)

Then this conference is for you!

Benefits of attending the DCCW:

  • Our unique 4-day interactive course provides the specialized knowledge and skills you need to provide education to persons with diabetes.
  • As a continuing education course, we cover the curriculum recommended by the American Diabetes Association's National Standards for Diabetes Self-Management Education (DSME) programs and address the content areas on the Certified Diabetes Educator (CDE®) exam.
  • Each lecture is updated prior to each course ensuring participants receive the most up-to-date information as well as diabetes core basics.
  • We will help you sift through all of the new information released so that you can focus your studying and maximize your time.
  • Our speakers are the best in their field ... professional, dynamic and motivating.
  • We provide you with practice tips you can start using immediately.
  • Upon arrival, you will be provided with a 400+ page manual, filled with lecture notes, images, sample documents, self assessment questions, and more, that you will use throughout the conference and will be able to refer to whenever you need.
  • A live conference is a dynamic and effective way to learn information. Attendees can ask and listen to questions, interact and network with peers, visit with exhibitors, and engage in role playing and other proven, effective learning techniques that our speakers use throughout their lectures.
  • Our primary goal is to provide you with the most important, most current diabetes-related information so that you can be a better diabetes educator.

   Interested in reading additional information on diabetes subjects? We have compiled a Diabetes Supplemental Reading List (pdf). This list includes resources from the ADA, AADE and a few books we have found helpful in discussing diabetes topics.

   Staff at the Wall Street Journal reviewed health-oriented mobile apps in 2011. To see the full list of 14 apps, click here. Most of the apps are free or low cost and can be used with BlackBerry, iPhone, iPad, and Android devices. Sample apps include: Calorie Counter (scan labels and log what you eat), RunKeeper Pro (track running stats) and Relax (guided meditations).

   For Veterans:    The Department of Veteran Affairs has approved reimbursement for the Certification Examination for Diabetes Educators. Veterans and other qualified individuals can now request reimbursement for the cost of the exam by using their GI education benefits.
