The Institute of Postgraduate Medicine is undergoing organisational changes, including redeveloping some of our courses. Consequently a number of our courses, including this one, are not accepting applications for 2011.

Our intention is that the redeveloped courses will begin in September 2012. Please check back in early 2012 for new course information and entry requirements.

This highly respected course meets the professional development needs of a wide range of practitioners working with people living with diabetes. It provides doctors and other health professionals with cutting-edge diabetes education which enables them to practise at the forefront of their discipline.

Students choosing the education or management routes take the mandatory modules, plus one of the postgraduate certificates offered by the Faculty of Health or three approved Faculty of Health management modules.

Career and progression opportunities
A number of students have received promotion and increased practice opportunities since registering on the course.

Course structure
The course is designed for both part- and full-time study. Students will normally be expected to be working in a setting where diabetes care or service management is a significant part of day-to-day activity. Each module is taught over a five-day week. Teaching staff are nationally and internationally renowned experts and provide a broad range of learning experiences through lectures, student presentations, group work and discussion. Throughout the course, exposure to relevant clinical activity integrates acquired knowledge into the reality of clinical practice.

Modules may be taken as individual units of study for continuing professional development without having to commit to a higher award.

Areas of study
The core modules explore the aetiology, epidemiology, management, complications and psycho-social impact of diabetes. Optional modules offer further development in service delivery and specialised areas of care.
