The aim of EU-CDEC project is to align EU Countries to provide standardised, accredited trainning for HCPs, thereby creating a set of transferable prinicples (learning outcomes). These will act as a 'common language' enabling professionals engaged in diabetes education and training to be more mobile and, therefore, facilitate cross-border learning.
