Why Should Healthcare Professionals Attend?

Type 2 diabetes continues to drive cardiovascular, renal, and metabolic morbidity across the UK. While treatment options have expanded significantly, translating evolving NICE guidance into confident, real-world prescribing decisions can be challenging in busy primary care settings.

This face-to-face study day provides a structured, practical update on modern diabetes management — from getting the diagnosis right to delivering holistic, prevention-focused care and optimising advanced therapies.

Through case-based discussions and expert-led teaching, delegates will gain clarity on risk stratification, treatment intensification, and safe prescribing decisions that improve long-term patient outcomes.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this study day, participants will be able to:

Apply current diagnostic criteria for type 2 diabetes and recognise atypical presentations.

Stratify cardiovascular and renal risk at diagnosis to guide early treatment decisions.

Implement prevention-focused strategies, including weight-centred and lifestyle-based interventions.

Optimise modern pharmacotherapy, including SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1 receptor agonists, in line with NICE guidance.

Confidently intensify treatment, including safe insulin initiation where appropriate.

Deliver holistic annual reviews that move beyond QOF tick-box approaches to genuinely improve outcomes.

Key Benefits

Practical, real-world application of national guidance
Clear decision-making frameworks for complex multimorbidity
Improved confidence in CVRM-focused diabetes care
Peer discussion and networking in a collaborative learning environment
CPD-accredited certificate for revalidation portfolios
