I was told about it last year when I went on a dietitian half day course but they suggested leaving it a bit. Liz, I've heard people in Retail refer to "The Great British Public", sometimes "The Great Unwashed" as a collective noun for life's rich tapestry.

I mean in the sense that most training I go on is specialised, highly targeted and and attended by those who have had higher qualifications and are still participating in lifelong learning.

Ask lots of questions. Make sure you get answers. Knowledge is power. I'm afraid since I worked in hospital pharmacy and we only saw unstable diabetics at their worse or coincidental diabetics there for surgery, I don't know so much about outpatient diabetic treatment although several of the hospitals have very good outpatient diabetic clinics with dietitians helping with that part of the equation and doctors refer patients to them. Is it a new program, or just new to you? This sounds like an excellent idea and make sure you get as much as you can out of it, despite them dumbing it down to the lowest level.
