Claire asked:

Hi, I am a keen runner and am interested in becoming a sports nutritionist/advisor. Would this course give me the accredited qualifications I need?

Answer:

Hi Claire. Thanks for your message :) The Level 3 Award in Nutrition for Physical Activity will indeed qualify you as a nutritional advisor. This term means you are qualified to advise people on healthy eating in relation to government guidelines and adapt those guidelines for specific training goals. To become a registered nutritionist, you would need to complete a University degree. This is a Level 3 Award and is a good starting point for you if you are looking to go into the field.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
