Clean Health Acquires the Australian Institute of Fitness (AIF) to Enhance the Careers of Personal Trainers Worldwide
Clean Health acquires the Australian Institute of Fitness to bring about a new era of development for Personal Trainers.
Choosing a career as a nutritionist in Australia offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to public health and wellness. Understanding the pathway to becoming a qualified nutritionist, the differences between nutritionists and dieticians, and the career prospects in this field is crucial for aspiring professionals.
In Australia, the distinction between a dietician and a nutritionist is based on qualifications and areas of practice; let us explain.
Dieticians hold a qualification that includes substantial theory and supervised and assessed professional practice in clinical nutrition, medical nutrition therapy, and food service management. They are qualified to provide medical nutritional therapy.
On the other hand, nutritionists specialise in calculating calories and macros, designing, coordinating, implementing, and evaluating a range of population health interventions to improve well-being through better food and nutrition, primarily focusing on fat loss, performance, body composition and overall health.
This is why many personal trainers from Clean Health do additional studies as nutritionists due to the cross-over with their current clientele. However, that is not a prerequisite.
To become a recognised nutritionist in Australia, individuals must complete a tertiary degree in nutrition or a related field. For instance, Clean Health’s Accredited Master Nutritionist Program provides a nationally accredited Certificate IV in Nutrition (11064NAT).
This program offers comprehensive training that meets the Australian national accreditation standards and is aligned with the latest industry standards and governance through the Nutrition Council of Australia.
It equips students with the knowledge and skills necessary to thrive and serve humanity!
Nutritionists are in high demand in Australia, especially as “Online Nutrition Coaches”.
Why? With increasing awareness about the importance of diet in health and wellbeing, the demand for qualified nutritionists across various sectors, including public health, sports nutrition, and private consultancy, has increased.
So it is the perfect time to take action and start, even if it is just a “side hustle” to begin with.
The salary of nutritionists in Australia varies based on experience, specialisation, and location. On average, nutritionists can earn between $50,000 and $200,000 per year, depending on their experience, whether in-person, online, part-time or full-time.
Nutritionists have massive opportunities for economies of scale as they gain experience and specialise in areas of high demand.
The time needed to become a qualified nutritionist depends on the level of education and training. A bachelor’s degree in nutrition typically takes three to four years, while postgraduate qualifications can add one to two years of study.
However, with the Clean Health Master Nutritionist qualification being a 100% online course, students typically finish the program in between 6-9 months based on them doing 10-20 hours per week; however, you do have 1-2 years to complete it based on your enrolment type.
