OVERVIEW AND INTRODUCTION
Welcome to Effective Nutrition Education for Behavior Change, a self-directed,
accredited, learning program.
Nutrition professionals often graduate knowing all about the biochemical science of nutrition, but very little about the behavioral science or applications of nutrition. Many of us end up working in community programs and are
expected to educate clients, develop nutrition education materials,
and develop theory-based interventions; yet, we receive little training
on how to accomplish these tasks. How should we communicate with our
audience? What should a brochure look like? How do we use a printed
piece with different population groups? How could we reach specific
population groups more effectively and impact their dietary behaviors?
This learning program was developed to answer a number of these questions
and many others to help you, the nutrition professional, better serve
your clients and program participants. Please note that this learning
program does not discuss program evaluation. To thoroughly cover all
facets of program evaluation requires a learning program on its own.
This learning program is divided into two parts. Part I introduces you
to the principles of nutrition education. Part II provides you with
practical information to help you develop and evaluate print materials
and other educational tools.
This level 2 learning program is designed to help you earn 18 Continuing
Professional Education units (CPEUs). To get the most benefit from this
program, adhere to the following four steps:
Step 1: Review the objectives for the learning program.
Step 2: Study each chapter. As you read, think of experiences from
your own practice and situations where you could apply the ideas provided.
Step 3: Assess what you have learned by completing the self-assessment
instrument provided at the end of this learning program.
Step 4: Compare your answers with the answer key provided. If you
score at least 80% correct, you are ready to transfer your answers to
the CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION REPORTING FORM. If you score less
than 80% correct, re-read this learning program until you score at least
80% correct.
