What does a nutrition counselling session look like in practice? Students will work with different case scenarios and simulated counselling sessions, giving them the opportunity to apply their knowledge and develop practical skills. With the guidance and support of mentors, they will go through the counselling process, from the initial client interaction to developing personalised nutritional recommendations.
