In January 2010 IHS is launching 2 new ITEC accredited certificate courses. Both courses are 1 year in length, with lectures, workshops and field trips one weekend per month. We are really excited about both courses, which have been specifically designed to offer students a really practical yet information packed look at nutrition and health. The courses are written with the average Western lifestyle in mind and use current health issues and eating habits as a central point from which to discuss food and health. So whether you are interested in how to effectively combat obesity, how to read and understand a food label, how to cook different health foods or who is in charge of your food from farm to fork, these courses can help ensure you understand all the current issues around diet and health. Both courses are suitable for anyone wanting to expand their knowledge for personal use, however they are also designed with the healthcare professional in mind. Dietary Coaching: Nutrition and Health is perfect for complementary practitioners looking to expand their practice by giving high quality, easily achievable, basic nutrition advice to their clients., whilst coaching them towards change (which is always a challenge!). Likewise, our Dietary Coaching: Sports Nutrition certificate course offers the same basic nutrition principles but with an additional focus on nutrition for the sports enthusiast.
