The diabetes pandemic affects about half a billion people worldwide, impacting greatly on morbidity, life expectancy and economics, and making the implementation of effective prevention strategies a necessity. Both primary and specialist caregivers should be adequately and appropriately trained in diabetes prevention and treatment, with continuous updates about the most recent and effective tools for screening and management of people at increased risk of developing diabetes and the latest diabetes literature landmark studies.

Scientific Seminars is proposing a high-level, multi-format, outcomes-based educational approach to accompany healthcare professionals along a progressive pathway towards changes in their clinical practice. The digital learning journey starts with an interview with an international expert on lifestyle modifications to prevent diabetes, delivers discussion of real clinical cases with interactive elements, continues with a live webinar on management of obesity in pre-diabetes, and concludes with reports from outstanding scientific meetings on diabetes.

Multidisciplinary teams managing the following specialist areas: Endocrinology, Diabetes, Internal Medicine and General Practice.
