Apr 10- Chapter 12 Update- Study Guide now complete for the 2025 exam

Hello everyone, the chapter 12 update- Glycemic Management Across the Lifespan for People With Type 1 Diabetes study guide is now complete. I have also updated the new target in all the quizzes.

The CDECB has posted an update on their website:

Resource Update: Diabetes Canada’s new chapter, Glycemic Management Across the Lifespan for People With Type 1 Diabetes, incorporates new evidence that supports individualized, evidence-based care across all life stages. It replaces the 2018 guidelines for adults (chapter 12), and children and adolescents (chapter 34).  This update will be reflected in the May 2025 Examination

Thanks

Mar 26- Fixed error with exam webpage

Hi everyone, there was an error where the backup copy of the exams were showing instead of the updated 2025 exam. I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. This error has been fixed and for some people this may have increased your number of exam attempts. Please enjoy.

Thanks
Esmond

P.S. for technical issues, please email me with a screenshot. Comments on the post will be deleted.

June 24- Exam Results Out!

I have gotten emails from several students reports that exam results are available on the CDECB website of they have gotten emails with their results.

A) If you have passed your exam, congratulations! Not everyone passes so attaining your CDE is an accomplishment to be proud of! Now begins the steps of building your diabetes practice. I have created a webpage for that. Please see: http://cdestudycourse.com/using-your-cde/ .

B) If you haven’t received your results by mid July I would email the CDECB to make sure that your address and all your other personal information is correct. You should be receiving your results soon. If you deferred the exam please email me the CDECB deferral letter and I will extend your account once.

C) If you did not pass, you are not the only person. Unfortunately not everyone passes the exam every year. Even people who have written the exam many times sometimes do not pass. Remember the deadline for the refunds/reactivations is July 31 and remember I need both pages of the fail letter which the CDECB will mail to you shortly. There are absolutely no refunds/reactivations after July 31 for any reason.

D) Just because the exam is over doesn’t mean you can’t email me. If you have a tough or interesting case and want a second opinion please feel free to email me. I want to help you help people with diabetes!
