The Association sponsors an annual meeting and education program, as well as regional meetings through chapter networks. A certification program for diabetes educators is conducted through a separately established National Certification Board. Individuals with Diabetes should contact the (800) TEAM UP 4 for a referral to a Diabetes educator in their area.
