Congratulations!

I'm glad to see that you have registered for the Professional Certificate in Family Nutrition program. This course is titled Healthy Moms and Infant Nutrition.

This innovative and comprehensive Web-based Certificate Program has been designed to help counteract the current toll overweight and obesity are taking on America today and its legacy of tomorrow by providing guidance for adults in role modeling healthy food choices and exercise behaviors for their children. This can help protect health care costs, the strength of the nation’s work force, and the happiness and well-being of tomorrow’s citizens from the detrimental affects overweight and obesity can produce. The certificate will also examine the numerous influences that an expecting mother’s food choices, the food choices of the family and friends, and the children’s own food attitudes and behaviors can impact weight and health.

I kindly thank you for your time and efforts. Best wishes to you and your learning experience.

Sincerely,
Melissa Halas-Liang, MA, RD, CDE
Program Coordinator

    Switching Over to New System This Week!    Posted: Jul 9, 2012
    Hi Students, Starting today we are going to begin the process for switching everyone over to the new system. Be on the lookout for emails from us regarding your new user info and password for accessing the new system. Most of you will be able to keep your current user name, but we may have to provide a few of you with new user names. Please note you will be receiving a temporary password for accessing the new system as well. As another reminder, once we email you with the new login information, you will also be provide with 6 additional weeks from your original end date to complete the course(s) you are currently logged into. So if your current end date is July 12th, your new end date would be 6 weeks from then, so your new end date would be August 23rd. Also, please be sure copy an image of your grade book by using the “Print Screen” button on your computer. This way if there is any discrepancies with grades, you will have documentation of the grades you had before switc

    IMPORTANT NEWS! Switching to a New Online Course Learning Management System This Summer    Posted: May 16, 2012
    Hi Students, I hope you are all well. I wanted to let you know that in the upcoming weeks we will be switching everyone to a new Learning Management System (LMS). Currently the one you are using “Pageout” has served us well over the years. However, we recently learned that the creator of Pageout, McGraw-Hill will be closing the doors on Pageout later this year. After some searching for a new system, we have happily decided to work with a company called “Its Learning”. Now this system is much more user friendly and has a similar structure in terms of the overall layout Pageout has, so you should not have any problems with getting used to the new system. So in the upcoming weeks we will be emailing you regarding how and when the actual switch over will occur. All of your grades will transfer over, as well as your user ID and Passwords (please note some user info exceptions may apply, but if it does we will let you know). Also, to help compensate for this switch over, we are p
