Virginia’s  Diabetes Prevention Program Annual Meeting
VCDPE has crafted an annual meeting for all DPP Lifestyle Coaches in Virginia since 2018. We have orchestrated in-person and  live synchronous day-long and half day meetings that provide at least two hours of Advanced Training and CEU. Please go to our Program Resources page to review past events topics.  VCDPE will work with you on marketing, agenda development and evaluation, and handle all administrative aspects of setting up the meeting including registration, identifying, contracting and working with expert speakers,  and applying for CEU. Since 2018, 98% of attendees have rated this meeting highly valuable.

Delivering the DPP through Distance Learning
This two-session live synchronous advanced training helps DPP Lifestyle Coaches feel comfortable delivering the Prevent T2 using distance learning. Topics include considerations when setting up a distance learning DPP, adapting group facilitation for distance learning, using existing remote tools to make your program more engaging, and ways to engage participants between sessions. We share ideas and resources to help participants feel more confident in their distance learning delivery.

Beyond the Plate: Cultural Considerations When Working with Diverse Populations
A comprehensive 1-3 hour advanced training that emphasizes the food practices and cultural considerations that DPP Lifestyle Coaches must consider when working with diverse populations. Crafted especially to your audience, this training is delivered by 2-5 registered dietitians who have extensive experience working with African American/Black, Middle Eastern and Northern African, Hispanic/Latino, Asian, and Native American populations. Your organization has the flexibility to choose the populations that your attendees are most interested in learning more about.
