Diabetes BASICS: Education, Innovation, Revolution

In Brief

This article describes the Type 2 Diabetes BASICS curriculum, an evidence-based education program that, when used in educator programs, has reduced hemoglobin A_1c and body weight in people with type 2 diabetes in both individual and group education. This curriculum has also served as a model for the Insulin BASICS and Gestational Diabetes BASICS programs and has been implemented in various education and research settings, including work sites. These curriculums provide all of the needed materials for an education program, as well as extensive tips and guides to increase individualization of information and activities to engage program participants in transferring knowledge and skills in a variety of situations.
