Medical - Medical: Health Care / survey about diabetes
English term or phrase: Certified Diabetes Educator (CDE)
I will be posting each term individually, but in order to give the proper context, I must give you the entire question that is giving me problems (which contains multiple terms and part of the challenge is differentiating between them):

"Are you currently a practicing, certified diabetes educator, diabetes nurse educator, or a diabetes educator?"

The purpose is to differentiate among the following types of professions or equivalents (in Canada):

Diabetes Educator (DE):
Diabetes Nurse / Nurse Educator – (DNE)
Certified Diabetes Educator (CDE):
Licensed or Registered Nurse (RN or LPN)

So far here's what I'm coming up with, but I'm only guessing as a starting point since I have no idea what the proper terminology is for Canada. I could use any help I can get!

Diabetes Educator (DE): Educateur(trice) en diabétologie
Diabetes Nurse / Nurse Educator – (DNE): Infirmier(ère) educateur(trice) en diabétologie
Certified Diabetes Educator (CDE): Educateur(trice) certifié(e) en diabétologie
Licensed or Registered Nurse (RN or LPN): Infirmier(ère) autorisé(e) ou immatriculé(e)

Also, the are all these acronyms in the source (RN, LPN, DNE, etc.)...should I try to include acronyms in the translation as well or is it best to leave those out?

Thank you in advance for sharing your expertise.

Au Québec, les termes "certified" et "certifcation" se traduisent respectivement par "agréé" et "agrément", en particulier dans les ordres professionnels.
