About the In Person Workshops
Our in person workshops are geared toward health and fitness professionals who may be working with clients, patients, and consumers in a capacity that involves food and culinary nutrition. Learning hands on culinary nutrition skills can help us better serve ourselves and our clients!
Let’s change the conversation! Instead of educating people on what they need to limit or “can’t have,” empower them with foods they CAN eat and healthy cooking techniques that can be utilized at home to prepare flavorful food. Bridge the gap of nutrition education with what clients understand about food.
Our food-first approach shows you how to educate clients with evidence-based science, but translated through food and paired with behavior change techniques.
Learning Objectives
1. Make evidence-based nutrition education relatable to clients through “food talk.”
2. Discuss the impact culinary nutrition programs can have on behavior mediators such as stress, knowledge, confidence, and goal setting.
3. Identify a variety of culinary nutrition needs and tips related to a variety of disease states or culinary nutrition topics and how to help integrate them.
4. Evaluate clients’ cooking skills to work on goal setting accordingly.
For those who are RDs/DTRs, workshops have been approved for 7.5 CEUs by the Commission on Dietetic Registration. For other health and fitness professionals, we are working on other credits. Please contact us directly about other education credits you would like to see.
