What is a clinical nutrition certification?
A clinical nutrition certification shows that you have studied how food and nutrients are used to support people living with medical conditions such as diabetes, thyroid disorders or PCOS. A course certificate shows what you studied. It is not a licence or registration, so check what your profession and employer require.
Institute Nutrition (INC) teaches clinical nutrition through condition-focused courses, not one general programme. This page sets the five courses side by side so you can compare what each covers and what you receive at the end.
The courses suit dietitians, nutritionists, doctors and other health professionals who want deeper knowledge in one area. Some also suit motivated learners starting out. Each course page states who it is written for.
