Special Requirements

Training Design

The training is designed to enable the learner to proceed through the modules and activities at his/her own learning rate, but within a six-month period. Time required to complete instructional materials and assignments in both manuals is estimated at approximately 20 hours per month. It is recommended that one day a week be set aside for reading and completing assignments, observations, supervised activities, and conferences with the supervising nutritionist and/or other nutrition assistants.

Supervision And Evaluation

Training and evaluation of the nutrition assistant is supervised and/or completed by the local agency public health nutritionist, who is a registered dietitian. In cases where the nutritionist is not on site, the local agency administrator will designate who is to provide direct on-site supervision. In most cases, this will be nursing personnel. During the training the nutritionist meets with and/or talks with the nutrition assistant on a weekly basis at a minimum, with biweekly meetings scheduled. After completion of the six-month training period, monthly training meetings will be conducted by the supervising nutritionist for skills update.

Evaluation of competency is measured by rating the nutrition assistant's ability to meet performance objectives outlined on checklists for each module. Post tests rate ability to meet knowledge objectives. A passing score of 85% or better is required for the post-tests and comprehensive evaluation. Nutrition assistants must meet the performance objectives listed for each module in the Module Evaluation Guide by the end of the six months training.
