Engaging and useful guide to FreeStyle Libre systems: dedicated children and young people case studies


This online training course will fully equip Healthcare Professionals who work with children and young people with diabetes in Secondary Care. Led by experienced experts in CGM, you will leave with a clear, strategic approach to analysing and using FreeStyle Libre systems data effectively to improve outcomes in CYP. 


With thanks to our industry partner:


3 hours Continuing Professional Development: what you will learn

The first part of this valuable learning forum will be made up of clinical, evidenced driven updates and a refresher of data interpretation skills through case-based learning and interactive polling. For the second part of the morning, you can choose two out of three workshops that focus on HCL for adolescents and young adults, HCL for younger children and more challenging CYP. 


On booking your place, you will be asked to choose two workshops. If you do not let us know your preferred choice, you will be randomly allocated.


  • Workshop 1: CGM and HCL data interpretation for adolescents and young adults (including alcohol and exercise)
  • Workshop 2: CGM and HCL data interpretation in younger children 
  • Workshop 3: Utilising CGM data in more challenging CYP: Type 2, basel bolus, (non-HCL)

Each workshop will provide dedicated time with an expert to work through real-life scenarios to solidify your practical understanding of data interpretation. 

Developed with convenience in mind: join this interactive, online course remotely

Packed with examples of best practice, interactive discussions and ‘how to’ advice, this course will provide you with all the elements to engage with the day:


  • Meeting each other – turning on your videos and microphones in the breakout rooms
  • Listening and watching presentations and speakers’ Q&A – in the main course room with your chair
  • Taking part in facilitated interactive sessions – enabled by moderators in the breakout rooms
  • Feeding back and engaging – using the chat box and moderators sharing content in the main room

Gain confidence in your data interpretation ability -and return to your service inspired to provide improved, patient centred care.
