Entry requirements For this course, there’s no pre-requisite secret sauce to apply. If you’re interested in nutrition or have a background in fitness, leisure and health, you’re in!

How will the course be assessed? At the end of each module and at the end of the course there will be multiple-choice question quizzes, where you will be required to answer 75% correctly to pass. You'll have three attempts to pass each one but we’ll give you as much time as you need and you’ll also be able to look back at your notes during the exam. Your very own nutrition tutor will also be on hand to help guide you through.

Upon successful completion of the course and assessments you will be awarded the AfN Certificate in Advanced Nutrition Essentials for Fitness & Leisure.
