Nurses on Diabetes online training

Empowering healthcare practitioners to manage patients with diabetes

What is the NOD online training all about?

The NOD program has been designed to up-skill healthcare professionals with additional knowledge on the basics of diabetes management as well as health coaching.

Diabetes is affecting millions of people in Sub-Saharan Africa and is presenting a growing health and economic burden with more than 55 million people predicted to have Diabetes in Africa by 2045*.  More skilled healthcare professionals are and will be needed to address this growing concern.

The vison of the NOD program is to provide this much needed training from the comfort of your own home, accessible with any device and at a time that is convenient to you.

The NOD platform offers two online courses.
These include:

  • Basics of diabetes management course 

  • Health coaching course.

You have the option to register and complete one of the courses only or alternatively, you can register for the complete course which includes both.
