I work in a Diabetes Education Centre for 40 hours a week. Can I count all 40 hours of that time as my experience?

Only the time you spend teaching those with diabetes, those at risk of diabetes or the care givers of those with diabetes contributes towards the 800 hours. Review of charts, charting, review of education materials, taking a course, a lunch and learn, and coffee breaks are not considered diabetes education.
