Automated Insulin Delivery 101: Core Concepts & Patient Selection

60-minute Program
Effective dates for CE credit: 3/31/2026 – 3/31/2028

This webinar will provide a practical, clinician‑focused overview of modern AID systems, clarifying what these technologies are—and aren’t—and how they fit into current Standards of Care. This session reviews the core components and terminology of AID, outlines evidence‑based criteria for identifying appropriate candidates across both type 1 and type 2 diabetes and highlights the clinical and quality‑of‑life benefits compared to multiple daily injections. We will address common misconceptions, walk through real‑world case examples, and share role‑specific insights to help prescribers, pharmacists, and diabetes care and education specialists confidently recognize AID readiness and expand its effective use in clinical practice.

This webinar is the first in our seven-part AID series.
Part 2: Getting to Know the AID Landscape: Current & Future Options
Part 3: Prescribing AID: Documentation, Workflow, and Team Roles
Part 4: Patient Training & Onboarding for AID Systems - Laying the Groundwork for Success
Part 5 (July 21): Clinical Follow-Up & Troubleshooting: Optimizing Outcomes in AID
Part 6 (September 24): Case Studies in AID: Real-World Scenarios
Part 7 (October TBD): Access & Affordability: Ensuring Equity in AID Therapy
