In 1995, the ADA’s
Public Health/Community Nutrition Practice Group responded to demand
for guidance on training experiences from those working in public
health nutrition. Guidelines for Community Nutrition Supervised
Experiences was offered as the first comprehensive curriculum
for enhancing the capacity of public health nutrition personnel to
respond to the broad range of responsibilities demanded from this
field.
The purpose of Guidelines for Community Nutrition Supervised Experiences
2nd Edition is to update the guidelines in consideration of the
changes in public health nutrition over the past decade. This purpose
maintains the original intent, which was to provide guidelines for
supervised experiences for community nutrition personnel in community
nutrition programs that promote the health and well being of individuals,
families, and communities. These guidelines are the essential starting
point for personnel working in community nutrition programs who seek
to enhance their level of practice, be they nutritionists, nommunity
nutrition educators, or clinical nutritionists and whether or not
they are a Registered Dietitian or Dietetic Technician Registered.
Guidelines for Community Nutrition Supervised Experiences is intended to help
community nutrition personnel not only enhance their current practice for client-focused
personal nutrition services, but also transition to a practice that will be more
population/systems focused.
