About this field

Nutrition and Diet

Good information about food changes how people eat. This field covers the science of nutrition, meal planning, food safety, nutrition across life stages and community nutrition education.

It starts with a 60-hour Nutrition Fundamentals Certificate and stacks into a 175-hour Diploma. It is a support-level program: it does not qualify you as a clinical dietitian or to treat disease. The curriculum is designed by Luminary and its learning materials are in production.

Who it is for

  • People starting in nutrition education or wellness
  • Teachers, trainers and community workers
  • Food and hospitality staff
  • Anyone who wants reliable nutrition knowledge
