Obesity is an engaging e-learning programme for practitioners in the NHS and local authorities working in weight management.
It has been developed by the Department of Health Obesity Team in partnership with DH e-Learning for Healthcare.
The programme introduces obesity and its implications for health, provides a knowledge base on identification of unhealthy weight and risk factors for weight gain, managing obesity, and learning on guiding and enabling behaviour change.
The learning is relevant for a wide audience, including doctors, particularly foundation doctors, GP trainees and GPs, and nurses and any NHS or local authority practitioner who encounters overweight or obese individuals.
