In a bid to amplify awareness about diabetes and to address the growing need for diabetes care and management in the country, New Delhi-based startup BeatO has partnered with International Institute of Health Management Research (IIHMR) Delhi, to launch a competitive  course- Certificate in Diabetes Education.

This 10-week course is an industry-first collaboration between a health-tech platform and an esteemed educational and research institute in India. The course aims to provide comprehensive training to healthcare professionals which will eventually bridge the gap in the availability of diabetes care educators in India.  

The Certificate in Diabetes Education aims to address the gap by providing healthcare professionals like paramedical staff, nurses, dietitians, and caretakers working in hospitals, clinics or in the community with  necessary skills and knowledge to provide high-quality care to people with diabetes. Through this course the healthcare professionals will  gain hands-on experience in diabetes care.

BeatO experts will leverage best clinical practices, scientific studies, and vast experience of diabetes care professionals towards  practical training components and IIHMR-Delhi will lend technical expertise towards quality assurance, systematic  delivery, and certification. Upon completion of the course, the aspirants will receive  certification from BeatO and IIHMR-Delhi.
