Peer educator training will prepare you to deliver an evidence-based, diabetes education curriculum developed at the University of Illinois-Chicago. You will gain an understanding of the causes, diagnosis and management of diabetes, principles of adult education, DEEP teaching activities, and tips to successfully enroll and graduate your community members in this valuable program.
This peer educator training is 20 hours over the course of three days. The training will be held from 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. on July 12 - 14, 2017. Participants must attend all three days of training. At the end of the training, participants will be prepared to implement the DEEP curriculum through a six-session workshop to seniors in their communities.
