Intake is offering a free comprehensive dietary assessment curriculum to train a cohort of new leaders in the field of dietary assessment.

If you are a researcher from a LMIC, you should apply for this course. It's free, but space is limited.

The curriculum comprises 11 different modules, covering all aspects of dietary assessment – from survey planning and design to pre-survey work, the preparation of dietary reference data, and dietary data collection, processing, analysis, and reporting. The teaching modality involves presentations, readings, practical exercises, homework, active discussion time, and knowledge consolidation quizzes.

The course will provide participants with the opportunity to interact, discuss with, and work on different homework exercises related to dietary assessment with other committed course participants from around the world. This year, the course will be taught in English remotely over Zoom. Each class session will be 1.5 hours, 2x per week: Tuesday and Thursday 8:00-9:30am ET. The full course curriculum duration is ~ 8 months. Students are expected to participate actively in the full course curriculum. A certificate will be provided to participants who successfully complete the full course curriculum. The deadline for submitting applications is April 15, 2024 at 5pm Eastern Time.
