What do people ask before enrolling on the Clinical Nutrition & Dietetics?
Does this course make me a registered dietitian?
No. This is a skill-enhancement certificate, not a UGC degree or an Indian Dietetic Association registration. It deepens your practical diet-planning skills so you can support qualified doctors and registered dietitians, not replace them.
Can I plan diets for patients after this course?
You can plan therapeutic diets in a supportive, educational capacity alongside a treating doctor or registered dietitian. Any clinical decision-making for a diagnosed patient should remain with the medical team.
How is the course delivered?
It is fully online with sessions in English and Hindi. You get lifetime access to the recordings and mentor support throughout, so you can learn at your own pace over the three months.
Do I need a background in science or nutrition?
A basic understanding of nutrition or a healthcare background helps, as this is an advanced-level course. Motivated learners from allied fields can follow along with the mentor support provided.
What certificate do I receive?
You receive the Clinical Nutrition and Therapeutic Diet Specialist skill-enhancement certificate from NNWA on completion. EMI options are available for the fee.
