Diabetes Education Program

Diabetes Education Program



A Diabetes Education Program provides the tools and skills needed to support people living with diabetes so that they can lead a more full and healthy life. In both group settings and one-on-one counselling, individuals learn self-management skills from a team of health care professionals - including Diabetes Nurse Educators and Registered Dietitians - and can develop life plans to help both minimize their symptoms and delay or prevent the onset of diabetes complications.

Tip : If you or a family member is living with diabetes, contact a local Diabetes Education Program to help you acquire the skills you need to effectively manage your diabetes

Use this option when


  • You’ve been diagnosed with diabetes
  • You have a family member that’s been diagnosed with diabetes
