Graduates are eligible to become Accredited Practicing Dietitians following accreditation of the program with Dietitians Australia. ACU is currently engaged in the preliminary stages of accreditation with Dietitians Australia.

The Graduate Certificate in Culinary Nutrition Science is designed for practitioners and graduates across the nutrition, dietetics, health, education and the culinary arts industries. You will study two units in culinary nutrition science, which are offered as micro-credentials, allowing for staged completion of the certificate and providing flexibility to meet the needs of busy professionals. You can then choose an additional two units to make up your graduate certificate. Continuing professional development (CPD) is compulsory for practicing nutritionists and dietitians and other professionals, so if you are looking for opportunities to develop contemporary skills to help you open broader career pathways, and at the same time meet your CPD goal, this course is for you.
