ADEA is currently looking for mentees who would like to join our Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Health Worker/Health Practitioner CDE Mentoring Pilot Program. As a mentee, you will be learning more about diabetes care and education, and the pathway to becoming a Credentialled Diabetes Educator (CDE).
Diabetes is one of the most significant health issues that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities face. Engagement of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health workforce is essential to improving diabetes prevention and management.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Workers and Health Practitioners receive limited training in diabetes within current vocational education training packages. The availability of quality post-qualification education opportunities is particularly important for this workforce.
We are calling for all Health Workers and Health Practitioners across Australia to take up this opportunity to join the Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Health Worker/Health Practitioner Mentoring Pilot Program.
During the 12 weeks of the Program, you will receive support and education from your mentor, helping you to assist your clients in managing their diabetes. Additionally, you will learn about further studies and scholarship opportunities to assist you in becoming a Credentialled Diabetes Educator (CDE) yourself.
If you would like to join or learn more about the Program, please contact Leonie Yasso at Leonie.Yasso@adea.com.au by 25 February 2022.
The artwork for the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Worker/Health Practitioner CDE Mentoring Pilot Program has been generously provided by emerging artist Elron Yasso who was born on Juru land. You can learn more about the artwork here.
This project is funded by NDSS.
