Title:

The aim of this course is to provide fitness professionals with an overarching understanding of nutrition knowledge, weight loss principles and supplementation to better a client's performance outcomes. In addition, this course will support fitness professionals in understanding their scope of practice and how their expertise in fitness can interlink with other health and well-being professionals, such as Nutritionists, Dieticians, Doctors and Health Psychologists.

Each stage of the course will include a video course, a written synopsis of key points, a suggestion to how this information fits into their scope of practice, and finally a test of the knowledge learnt at each stage. Moreover, with all continued professional development it’s important to reflect on how this can be applied to you practice, and what are your key takeaway points.
