The Association for Nutrition (AfN) holds a database of Registered and Associate Nutritionists which we recommend members apply for to improve the professional image of nutritionists working in industry (http://www.associationfornutrition.org). The Association’s purpose is to protect and benefit the public by defining and advancing standards of evidence-based practice across the field of nutrition and at all levels within the workforce. The register helps employers, the media and the general public to identify appropriately qualified individuals. Members on the register are expected to adhere to the Association’s Code of Ethics.
There are several different categories of Registration for which members may apply:
- Food
- Nutrition Science
- Public Health
- Animal
- Sport/Exercise
