PCRM's Nutrition Education Curriculum
This curriculum provides a foundation of clinically-relevant nutrition information and was developed in response to the scores of medical students who contact us with concerns that they do not receive adequate, or even current, training in nutritional issues.

Vegetarian Nutrition course from aliveacademy.com
In this course, you will be provided with a wealth of information, facts and advice about nutrition and health. Our goal is for you to assimilate these new ideas, compare them to what you have believed about nutrition before and, hopefully, take any necessary action to adopt or maintain a wholesome and healthy set of values about food. Knowledge is the powerful tool to raise our awareness and convince us to adopt a new lifestyle and then stay with it.
Includes the course binder, Becoming Vegetarian by Melina, Davis & Harrison, For the Love of Food by Jeanne Marie Martin, and shipping (within Canada). A certificate will be awarded upon successful completion of the final exam and final essay.
