Last year more than 1400 people registered for the FREE series which is facilitated by WSD, ACI – Agency for Clinical Innovation, Diabetes, Obesity Metabolism Translational Research Unit (DOMTRU) and the Western Sydney LHD/PHN, Hunter New England LHD/PHN, Nepean Blue Mountains LHD/PHN, and South Western Sydney LHD/PHNs.

The event is for GPs, pharmacists, diabetes educators, nurses, endocrinologists, dietitians, exercise physiologists, psychologists and podiatrists to better equip them with the skills to better manage type 2 diabetes.

See the FULL program below of both the face to face and virtual sessions and register now.

The virtual series is a high quality and comprehensive program over 7 weeks featuring expert guest speakers, interactive case studies and panel discussions for each evening, delivered by more than 50 highly-qualified faculty from across NSW who will keep you right up-to-date with the management of type 2 diabetes.

The evenings will include short and interactive case discussion or question and answer sessions.

If you miss an evening, you can watch it later on the myINTERACT app.

At the end of the series, we will return to the PARKROYAL Parramatta on Saturday, November 7 where delegates can enjoy interactive sessions and case studies around an array of management issues related to diabetes, delivered by an expert faculty of Endocrinologists, General Practitioners and diabetes health professionals.

On the day, learn more from the series’ pharmaceutical sponsors and partners and what they have to offer from their information booths at the one day of face-to-face sessions.

Enjoy the opportunity of networking with colleagues and learn from a faculty of more than 25 expert health professionals from across NSW. 

WSD Masterclass co-ordinator and Endocrine Registrar Dr Anoji Thevarajah said this year’s Masterclass focuses on the close relationship between cardiovascular, renal and metabolic health, and how we can address these risks together, rather than in isolation.

“We’ve designed the program to give GPs practical, evidence-based strategies they can use in everyday practice, while also highlighting the newer therapies and approaches that are changing the way we manage people with diabetes,” Dr Thevarajah said.

“What I’m most looking forward to is bringing clinicians together to share ideas, learn from each other and have practical conversations about the challenges we all see in day-to-day care.

“The hybrid format gives people the flexibility of virtual learning, while still creating space for the interaction and shared learning that comes from meeting face-to-face.”

When participants enrol for the Series they will have access to the recorded presentations and slides which will be hosted long term on the myINTERACT app.
