“My tutor was incredibly patient with all my questions and helped me to choose the right options for my needs, saving me a lot of time and money as well. Very happy with my enrollment, and looking forward to studying my Sports Nutrition course!” - Lorrae M.
“After completing my social work degree and working in the field for many years, I decided to reskill in the health and nutrition industry. An industry I have always shown a keen interest in. My goal is to potentially combine both qualifications. To educate and support those with special needs and young people to achieve healthy lifestyles. I believe the Nutrition and Business Certificate course will provide me with the knowledge and skills to achieve this goal. I find the course content to be clear, easy to understand and practical. What attracted me to the course was not only the content, but the ability to learn and hand in assignments at my own pace. On completion of my assignments, my tutor is quick to mark them and provide me with encouraging comments and insightful feedback. I feel fully supported and comfortable to approach my tutor when needed.”- Aviva K.
"100% would recommend it if you work full time and find it hard to find time to study. Study at your own pace with amazing tutoring staff, extremely helpful and an awesome attitude!" - Rhett D.

Always dreamed of knowing how to get the best results from your training sessions or working in the Health and Fitness industry? This course is perfect if you are wanting to gain the skills and knowledge to apply dietary interventions to help you or your clients achieve maximum performance. Sportspeople have special dietary needs to help them fulfil their athletic potential. In this course, you will:
– Develop your understanding of the way nutrition relates to sporting performance
– Improve your own performance in sport and fitness
– Help sportsmen and athletes manage their diet
– Expand your career options to work in the fitness, health, or sports industries
This course starts by laying the foundations of how we absorb food, an overview of the different components of food and the basics of nutrient disorders. The second module will help you understand sports nutrition, nutrition for fitness, sports supplements, and the relationships between performance, health, and food.
When you exercise, the food you have consumed is used to fuel the body. The components of food used during exercise are to a degree, different to those components which may be used when not exercising. It, therefore, stands to reason that the nutrition required for greater sporting activity can be different to the nutrition required for less sporting activity.
This whole premise is however complicated by the fact that the physical characteristics (including genetics) will vary from one individual to another, similarly, the nutritional components used in some sports will differ from those used in others. In effect, every situation is different, this reason alone is why you need to understand sports nutrition in a holistic and scientific way if you are to make appropriate nutrition choices.
