Nutrition and Hydration Certification

Nutrition and Hydration Certification

Nutrition is the process of taking in nutrients from food, relevant to our various dietary needs. Our bodies need certain nutrients for continued growth, cell repair and other metabolic processes throughout life, and we thus need to be extremely aware of what to include in our diets.

To be able to make informed decisions regarding our nutritional needs, it's important to understand the basic principles behind nutrition, in which water and hydration also play a role. Various guides and tools may be used to help ensure we get the nutritional balance and support needed, including the Eatwell Guide and Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool (MUST), both of which will be discussed in this course.

You Will Learn:

  • About the different types of nutrients our body needs and the various categories these nutrients can be broken down into.
  • What the benefits of water and staying hydrated are.
  • How the Eatwell Guide can help ensure you maintain a balanced diet.
  • How malnutrition is defined and the role the Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool plays in identifying malnutrition.

Benefits of Taking This Course:

  • You will be able to identify the nutrients needed to maintain a healthy body.
  • You will better understand what different foods are made of and which category of nutrient they fall under.
  • Your knowledge will allow you to identify the signs of malnutrition and dehydration and equip you with preventative steps.
  • Your knowledge will improve your awareness of healthy eating and allow you to make more informed choices with regards to a balanced diet.

The course is broken down into 5 individual modules. Each module takes between 20 and 90 minutes on average to study. Although you are free to spend as much or as little time as you feel necessary on each module, simply log in and out of the course at your convenience.

You can study the course any time you like. Simply log in and out of the web based course as often as you require. The course is compatible with all computers, tablet devices and smart phones so you can even study while on the move!

Great course. Easily readable online, no jargon and had up to date information and illustrations as well as the sources that were used within the modules. Most modules had an assessment at the end where you could check your own knowledge - this was a great add on to ensure you are up to speed. The exam was easily laid out great with no tricky to read questions. The completion certificate was easily accessible on completion and you are given your grade immediately after the exam - it even gives you the option to see your incorrect answers so you can review them in your own leisure. All of the modules are printable so you can ready back as often as you like. Not only this, but throughout the whole course, you have the ability to email representatives of the course who will answer any questions you may have and they are very prompt with their responses. I was overall very happy with this course and will definitely keep New Skills Academy in mind when taking future course. Thank you!

This course is incredibly helpful and easy to understand to start off a career in event planning. The case studies give you an insight into the real world of this role and not just the "shiny exterior". I'm loving this course and cannot wait to use the knowledge that I have gained in the [hopefully not so distant] future!

Leanne Dormer

Great course lots to learn and apply very informative, as a pharmacy assistant this course has given me more knowledge and confidence to provide great services to my customers.

Assignments were easy to follow and I would recommend anyone to study a course at New Skills Academy as you can do them in your own time.

Having a certificate not only boosts my confidence, but also shows my employers that i have learnt new skills and have gained more information that is useful for my area of work.

Thanks very much New Skills Academy, I will study with you again!

An amazing opportunity to improve my skills and easy to access. I really enjoyed the course! I think it s an excellent way to learn and improve yourself.

Thanks to this amazing course my self-esteem is growing up and I feel capable to start a new job and a new life. Constantly I am studying and I hope to be successful in the future.

Grazia Marino

This is a fantastic course, it is incredible value for money and it will give you all the information you need to be able to pursue the career of Teaching Assistant.

Being able to do it all in your own time makes it a lot less stressful if you're trying to fit it around work and life in general and the addition of worksheets throughout helps you see which areas need improvement before you take the final test.

Michelle Franklin

A great course to introduce and explain the roles and responsibilities of the PA and Administrator, or as a refresher to those wishing to return to the workplace.

The modules are jargon free and clearly laid out with exercises to complete at your own pace. There are useful notes and lists that help to make time management easier in the busy work environment.

I am impressed that the modules can be downloaded, saved or printed for future reference - many other courses do not offer this.

I have almost completed my Admin & PA Diploma and it has given me the confidence to apply for my first admin job in some years.
