What do people ask before enrolling on the Child & Adolescent Nutrition?
Does this qualify me to treat a child's medical condition?
No. The course is educational and supportive, helping you guide healthy eating and everyday nutrition. Diagnosing or medically treating a child remains the responsibility of a paediatrician or a registered dietitian, and you should always work alongside them.
I am a parent, not a professional, is that fine?
Absolutely. Many learners join simply to feed their own children better, and the course is written to be practical and jargon-light for exactly that.
Is it online and in which language?
Yes, it is fully online with recordings you keep for life, taught in both English and Hindi.
What certificate will I earn?
An NNWA skill-enhancement certificate recognising the practical knowledge you have gained. It is not a UGC degree or a clinical licence.
Is mentor support included?
Yes, you have mentor support throughout the five weeks, and you can rewatch any session whenever you like.
