Course Description

Distance learning course of 14 lessons

We are, as a result of the hype and media play made aware of sensible eating habits and the need for eating healthy foods but there is a fear that the amount of information being pushed at us is just that bit too much!

This course is aimed at enabling students to give clients clear, concise and no-nonsense advice, in an attempt to clear the minefield of information being given at present.

The course will touch areas including nutrients and the digestive system, weight control and management, diets for various populations and supplements.

Designed to have the student research and think clearly, the course will give students those skills that will be essential when advising their clients.

Tutor Support

With this course you will have unlimited access to your own personal tutor who specialises in their field of study. It is your personal tutor's role to ensure that you receive constructive feedback and to deal with any queries you may have. You are more than welcome to telephone, fax or email your personal tutor.

You will also have access to a dedicated and friendly team of administrators and course advisors who offer sound and professional guidance and advice when you need it. This ensures that you will never feel neglected and that you will always succeed!

Assessment Method

After each lesson there will be a question paper, which needs to be completed and submitted to your personal tutor for marking.
