eLearning Courses
Below you can find the eLearning courses that are currently available. Before starting the course, you will be directed to a registration form to complete. This is so we can track your progress throughout the course and let your healthcare team know when you are finished. We may also, from time to time with your GP's consent, assess how effective the courses are in helping people with their diabetes, by looking at changes in tests like HbA1c (blood glucose) levels (on anonymised data). This will help improve the courses in the future.
Once you have completed the registration form, you will be sent an email with a link into the course. You will then be able to create your own username and password for the eLearning site to start the course.
