“Becoming a Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist (CDCES) and Board Certified in Advanced Diabetes Management (BC-ADM) are two of the best professional and personal decisions I have ever made.”
– Coach Beverly Thomassian, RN, MPH, CDCES, BC-ADM
The use of DES products does not guarantee the successful passage of the CDCES exam. CBDCE does not endorse any preparatory or review materials for the CDCES exam, except for those published by CBDCE.
**To satisfy the requirement for renewal of certification by continuing education for the Certification Board for Diabetes Care & Education (CBDCE), continuing education activities must be applicable to diabetes and approved by a provider on the CBDCE List of Recognized Providers (www.ncbde.org). CBDCE does not approve continuing education. Diabetes Education Services is accredited/approved by the Commission of Dietetic Registration which is on the list of CBDCE Recognized Providers.
