There are many courses available which claim to equip someone to provide nutritional advice to athletes.  The purpose of SENr is to promote high standards of education and services in sports and exercise nutrition. Any education you undertake therefore also needs to meet the standards identified.  This means that any initial or ‘top up’ education in sports science or nutrition should be at a minimum of United Kingdom BSc Honours level and validated by a recognised university.
