Coming Soon: ADA's New Online Certificate Program
The American Diabetes Association (ADA) is excited to
announce a new self-paced online continuing education
(CE) program offering up to 22 CE credits or ABIM MOC
points to help you optimize care for people with diabetes.
The certificate program will include content from the popular
Diabetes Is Primary and Overcoming Therapeutic Inertia
education initiatives.

Bundle will help you put the Standards of Care into practice.
There will be seven self-paced modules providing guidance
on how to optimize care and treatment, leverage tools and
technology, and empower patients. This bundle will also
include a self-assessment program and three live panel
discussions. All modules align with ADA's Overcoming
Therapeutic Inertia Best Practices Framework.

" While the ability to host in-person events is currently limited,
we know the demand for continuing education with the most
up-to-date diabetes care information is stronger than ever, "
said Eric L. Johnson, MD, chair of the ADA's Primary Care
Advisory Group.

" We are excited to offer these certificate programs, giving
providers the information and tools they need to help people
with diabetes stay on track with their treatment and provide
them hope, " said Stephen Brunton, MD, editor-in-chief of
Clinical Diabetes. " While the value of the complete Diabetes
Is Primary Bundle is $275, we are offering it at $125 for
nonmembers, and $75 for existing ADA Professional members. "

The Diabetes Is Primary Certificate Program Bundle will offer
nine modules, including topics such as Improving Outcomes
by Utilizing Antihyperglycemic Agents Effectively, Effectively
Managing Cardiovascular Disease and Risk, Optimizing
Care for Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease, The Right
Technology for the Right Patient, and Practical Tips for
Providing Psychosocial Care. This bundle will also include
live ask-the-expert events. As always, the content for these
webinars will be based on the most current information and
ADA's Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes-2021.
The Overcoming Therapeutic Inertia Certificate Program

Registrants can purchase individual modules as well.
Although registration for the online certificate program will
not open until June, as a kick-off event, ADA will host a free
1-hour webinar, Overcoming Therapeutic Inertia: What
You Need to Know on June 2, 2021. This live event, offering
1 CE credit or ABIM MOC point, will provide practical tips
you can use in your practice today, as well as more detailed
information about the certificate program. Learn more and
