The Diabetes Essentials CDE exam prep includes everything you need to feel confident to take the CDE exam. It is intended to inform the educator of the basics involved in self-management education (SME) and self-management support (SMS), emphasising that although knowledge is a necessity, how this knowledge is translated by the educator and implemented by the patient is the ultimate challenge. The content in this manual supports the integration of the Diabetes Canada 2018 Clinical Practice Guidelines for the Prevention and Management of Diabetes in Canada (2018 Guidelines) into everyday practice.
The CDE Exam Prep package also includes access to a community forum of others studying for the CDE exam, practice tests throughout and a practice final examination to test your readiness.
