The Australian Diabetes Society is proud to host the ADS Diabetes Technology Workshop which will be held over 1.5 days on Saturday 28 & Sunday 29 October 2023 in Melbourne at the Crowne Plaza Hotel.

The workshop is primarily open to clinicians who consult and manage people living with type 1 diabetes. The aim of the workshop is to provide structured practical training about insulin pumps and other technologies used in diabetes self-management. This workshop contains new content to reflect the recent developments in insulin pump therapy and CGM technologies. The program will consist of a series of small group workshops, with between 6-8 participants per group. This will allow for hands-on skills acquisition. Each workshop will be supported by structured written materials. 

Topics to be covered include: 
Familiarisation and understanding pump settings, Continuous glucose monitoring, Dietary management with AID systems, Automated Insulin Delivery Systems, Interpreting technology downloads, Exercise and pumps, New and emerging developments in insulin pump therapy.
