eLearning

Below you can find the eLearning courses that are currently available. If you have not registered for eLearning before, you will need to complete a registration form. 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.
