Academy
Learning for better care
Certificate courses, fellowships, webinars, conferences, hands-on workshops, and an online learning portal — so clinicians and community teams grow skills that reach patients.
DREAM Academy educates the people who deliver diabetes and metabolic care — physicians, trainees, nurses, and community health workers. Programmes mix evidence updates with field-tested skills from camps and clinics across Uttar Pradesh.

Deep immersion
Fellowship programmes
Mentored pathways that combine supervised clinical exposure, community fieldwork, and scholarly activity — for early-career clinicians ready to specialise in metabolic care.
6–12 months
Clinical Diabetes & Advanced Metabolic Care
Supervised outpatient and clinic exposure under physician mentorship, with emphasis on complex type 2 diabetes, obesity medicine, and complication prevention.
6 months
Community Metabolic Health
Immersion in screening camps, referral audits, and public-health messaging — for clinicians who want fieldwork experience alongside evidence review.
Aligned to projects
Education & Research Mentorship
Structured support for protocol design, abstract preparation, and teaching sessions nested within Academy CME and outreach calendars.
What fellows can expect
Clear learning objectives, assigned mentors, participation in screening camps or clinic sessions, and guidance for abstracts or teaching contributions. Seats are limited; selection considers clinical background, motivation for community service, and availability for the programme term.
Live learning
Webinars
Focused online sessions for clinicians, trainees, and community teams — easy to join from any district, with selected recordings for later review.
Clinical updates
Guideline refreshers, therapy sequencing, and case discussions for physicians managing diabetes and related metabolic conditions.
Nutrition & lifestyle
Evening sessions for clinicians, patients, and caregivers on practical meal patterns, activity, and behaviour change in Indian contexts.
Camp & community skills
Short briefings for camp teams on screening flow, counselling quality, documentation, and follow-up closing the loop to clinic care.
Archive & replay
Selected recordings and slide packs remain available for enrolled participants so learning continues after the live hour.
Upcoming webinar titles and registration links are published with our events calendar. Patient-facing sessions use accessible language; clinician sessions include Q&A with faculty.
Scientific meetings
Conferences
Annual and thematic meetings that bring together metabolic medicine, education, and community health — so research and field practice share the same stage.
Scientific programme
Plenaries and parallel sessions on diabetes therapeutics, obesity medicine, public health, and ethical research from camp settings.
Skills & teaching tracks
Workshops and CME streams that translate science into exam-ready and clinic-ready teaching for postgraduate and primary-care audiences.
Community voice
Panels that include field experiences — what works in rural screening, patient education in Hindi, and durable referral partnerships.
Networking & collaboration
Space for institutions, trainees, and civic partners to explore joint studies, scholarships, and regional training circuits.
Practice by doing
Hands-on workshops
Small-group skills labs where teams practise techniques — insulin education, anthropometry, counselling, and camp station design — before applying them with patients.
Half-day · Hands-on
Insulin initiation & titration skills
Demonstration and supervised practice around education scripts, safety checks, and common titration pitfalls in primary care.
Camp prep · Team based
Anthropometry & risk scoring stations
How to run reliable waist, BMI, and blood-pressure stations with consistent technique under time pressure.
Interactive · Role play
Motivational counselling micro-skills
Brief, respectful conversations that help people act on diet, activity, and medication adherence after a screening result.
Full simulation
Camp operations dry-run
End-to-end rehearsal of registration, testing flow, counselling booths, and referral documentation before a live rural camp.
Workshops may run stand-alone, within CME days, or as pre-camp briefings for partner organisations. Group bookings for institutions and district teams can be arranged through contact.
