As a result, health/fitness professionals and Registered Dietitians will learn how to better apply their client’s health history, goals and abilities to take steps toward optimal health. Personal trainers and fitness professionals will understand fundamental nutrition knowledge to work with clients in partnership with Registered Dietitians. Individual consumers and members of the public interested in learning more about nutrition, daily meal planning, wellness strategies, and sport nutrition and performance will be exposed to information to help them achieve their own goals for themselves or family members.
