The program aims at impacting on health-related self-efficacy by the training of problem solving, goal setting, and cognitive techniques as knowledge transfer hasn't proved sufficient to achieve changes in behaviour. According to this we developed a curriculum wherein detailed information for every module concerning objectives, background, didactic methods and materials are provided. Based on the curriculum train-the-trainer seminars are held in order to educate on moderation techniques, group dynamics, and clinical background of CRF. The program will be administered by qualified health professionals in groups of eight patients. It includes six weekly sessions 90 minutes each dealing with the topics listed above.
