A highly qualified workforce of healthcare professionals across Europe, trained in the delivery of paediatric diabetes education, could soon be the future thanks to Leeds Metropolitan University's award-winning diabetes enterprise unit, Getting Sorted.
The team - which specialises in participatory research with children and young people with type 1 diabetes - has joined forces with six European partner organisations to win a bid of 393,000 euros from the Leonardo da Vinci Transfer of Innovation programme, to invest into the development of a Diabetes Educator Course.
The funding will be divided between project leaders Getting Sorted, and their partners in Germany, Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary and Greece and they will work together to research and implement the programme.
