Our first course, the Online Course on Nutrigenomics for professionals of Nutrition is now available.
The role of nutrition professionals in the maintenance of human health in the coming years will be the key, as well as the need for training through our courses in Nutrigenomics and Nutrigenetics.
The Course Objectives
Throughout the new Online Course on Nutrigenomics for professionals of Nutrition, you will know the tools that will soon be the most common in the dietitian and nutritionist medical consultation.
You will understand how individual genetic affects the response to nutrients. And also it will let you know how Nutrigenomics helps design and optimize the nutrition based on individual genome information of each patient.
This Course is designed for
The Nutrigenomics online course for professionals in Nutrition is particularly aimed at dietitians- nutritionists who they are in search of personalized diets, endocrinologists, pharmacists and students of Health Sciences.
Methodology
The online distance courses in Nutrigenomics and Nutrigenetics have been recorded using the latest video technologies. Our courses provide a depth training in Nutrigenomics and they are more affordable than a master degree.
The methodology is based on a distance education, flexible and from your home you can watch the videos of the modules with freedom of schedules. The modules also have over 500 pages of downloadable support material in pdf format.
You have 120 calendar days from the date we send you the keys to access the online course in the virtual campus to finish it. You can access the online course 24 hours a day from Monday to Sunday.
The estimated total duration of the course is 25 hours. After completing the course and after passing the self-assessment tests for each topic you will get a certificate from the Nutrigenomics Institute.
