Health Equity for Nutrition Professionals (CHES)

This course is only for CHES professionals.

Health equity is a fundamental principle in public health and healthcare, aiming to ensure that every individual can be the healthiest version of themselves. This course delves into the concept of health equity, the challenges it presents, and the ways it affects various demographic groups. It also examines the state of diversity and inclusivity on race, gender, and ethnicity, and proposes strategies to advance health equity in nutritional care in the U.S.

The dietetic profession requires at least one hour of continuing education on this topic or ethics every 5 years.
