06Questions

What do people ask before enrolling on the Bariatric & Post-Surgery Nutrition?

Can I guide a patient's post-surgery diet on my own after this?

No. Bariatric aftercare is clinical and must be led by the surgical team and a registered dietitian. This course is educational and supportive, helping you understand and contribute to that pathway rather than replace it.

Is this a substitute for medical advice before surgery?

No. All surgical and medical decisions rest with the patient's doctors. The course explains the nutrition side so you can support patients responsibly.

Is it online and in which languages?

Yes, fully online with lifetime recordings, in both English and Hindi.

What certificate is awarded?

An NNWA skill-enhancement certificate. It is not a UGC degree and does not grant Registered Dietitian or IDA status.

Is support available during the course?

Yes, mentor support runs throughout the six weeks, with lifetime access to the recorded sessions.

How it works

What happens after you enrol?

No pressure and no obligation — speak to us first, decide afterwards.
