The Australian General Practice Network’s role is to provide training in chronic disease management to GPs and nurses implementing the program, as well as producing a range of online program resources such as templates and guidelines. Training will be provided in four modules. All modules will be available online. For those who have difficulty with internet access, modules will also be available as a Manual with DVD/CD. An optional workshop to supplement the online learning for Module Two will be offered in all capital cities and in some regional areas which have a large population of veterans eligible for the CVC Program.
