Abstract

Overweight and obesity are growing public health concerns globally for which innovative prevention and care delivery efforts are required. We recently developed a web-based training program to improve the quality of health professionals’ weight management counseling of adolescents in Indonesia. Having previously confirmed its acceptability, this study aimed to measure the effectiveness of the program through a randomized controlled trial.
