Due to the growing epidemic of diabetes, a graduate-level, interdisciplinary, hybrid diabetes management course for nurses and public health care professionals was developed. A description of the course, assignments and teaching strategies are provided. In addition, the Diabetes Knowledge Questionnaire (DKQ) was used to evaluate students’ diabetes knowledge before and after taking the course. Overall, there were significant improvements in mean scores of the DKQ when pre-test was compared to post-test.
