Jan 27- Delaying until 2023
For those of you who have already registered for the exam, you should have received an email from the CDECB saying you have the option of delaying the exam till 2023 due to COVID fatigue. If you have bought a package before Jan 27 then you can extend your membership till 2023. Just email me confirmation that you are taking the exam in 2023 and them email me next year to remind me to reactive your account.
Thanks

Jan 25- New digital version of the Essentials: Building Competency
Hello everyone, just a FYI that there will be a new digital version of the Essentials coming out in February sometime. ICI medical is still working on their website. They are still working out the price and how long you will have access to the digital version. I’ll post more info here once I receive it. Remember that the Essentials is a great diabetes resources but not necessary for the exam. The most important document is the 2018 Diabetes Canada guidelines.
Thanks

Jan 13- Referral Reminder
Hello everyone, I’ve had a number of people put friend or colleague in the “Did Anyone Refer You” box of the registration page. For every 5 people a person refers they receive a free package D and I use that box to count how many referrals a person has made. So please put the name and email of the person. If you put friend/colleague into the box I wont know who referred you and that person won’t get credit. I’m a pharmacist not a psychic.
