The American Diabetes Association provides professional education activities and courses that focus on the latest in basic and clinical research. These activities offer educational opportunities, as well as the chance to network with colleagues. They are designed to reach a wide audience of health care providers including diabetologists, researchers, physicians, nurses, pharmacists, dietitians, psychologists, and podiatrists as well as international physicians and researchers.
The American Diabetes Association conducts professional education activities in support of its overall mission to prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes. It is the Association's belief that the quality of treatment received by the person with diabetes is directly dependent upon the education and expertise of his or her health care team.
The many areas of diabetes research and treatment are addressed through a variety of educational formats at the national, regional, and local levels.
