This 4-part course is designed to support the endocrine care team in enhancing foundational knowledge and skills involved in managing patients with MASLD/MASH. With topics that range from screening tools, diagnosis, and the relationship between obesity and liver disease, this course focuses on case-based strategies to engage learners in the practical application. This series is designed to support members of the endocrine team in the identification, treatment, and management of MASLD/MASH and the connection between liver disease management and weight loss interventions. This course includes the latest treatment guidelines and algorithms, emerging pharmacotherapies, and evidence-based approaches for shared decision making and using a team-based approach.

This online course includes 4 modules, releasing between September and November 2025.
This educational series has been designed for the full endocrine care team, including endocrinologists, primary care physicians, and allied health professionals like nurses and physician assistants.

Upon completion of this program, learners will be able to:

  • Describe the current guidelines and recommendations for MASLD and MASH screening and diagnosis while addressing clinical inertia. 
  • Examine collaborative care models that effectively leverage the endocrine care team and specialists to streamline the MASLD and MASH screening processes and enhance comprehensive patient care across multiple specialties. 
  • Identify the key factors in early screening contributing to the development and progression of MASLD and MASH in patients with obesity. 
  • Develop a strategy for incorporating non-invasive tests and digital biomarkers into clinical practice for MASLD and MASH management.
  • Apply a person-centered, evidence-based treatment plan for patients with MASLD and MASH, incorporating individualized lifestyle modifications and pharmacological therapies as appropriate.  
  • Develop long-term patient management strategies to monitor progression and ensure sustained patient engagement.
