Differences and comparison of different nutritionist certifications
1. Public dietitian: a new occupation just promulgated by the Ministry of Labor from June 5438 to October 2005. It is one of the fourth batch of new occupations promulgated by the Ministry of Labor. It is a professional and skilled talent to meet the needs of society and market. It refers to receiving professional knowledge and skills training and passing the national vocational qualification examination. Special professionals who have obtained professional qualifications (Article 6 of Document No.6) [1994] No.98 issued by the Ministry of Labor stipulates that "the Ministry of Labor is responsible for the appraisal of skilled professional qualifications and the issuance and management of certificates") are engaged in nutrition consultation, nutrition evaluation, nutrition guidance, nutrition publicity and education, nutrition management and nutrition teaching and scientific research.
Second, nutritionist: it is the qualification of clinical nutrition practitioners. The title of nutritionist in the Ministry of Health is limited to the medical staff engaged in nutrition work in hospitals. Have the right of prescription.
3. Nutritionist: Qualification certificate issued by the National Talent Flow Center of the Ministry of Personnel and china health care association, mainly engaged in health care guidance, such as private health care and family health care.
A. On-the-job training certificate for public nutritionists issued by the Ministry of Labor and Social Security.
B certificate obtained from the "nutritionist qualification examination" in the "National Health Professional and Technical Qualification Examination" organized by the Ministry of Health.
C. Certification training for nutrition hygienists launched by the National Talent Flow Center of the Ministry of Personnel and china health care association.
D. Certificates issued by training courses for nutrition hygienists organized by local health food associations E. Certificates issued by training courses for nutritionists of local nutrition associations F. Certificates issued by training courses for nutritionists and nutrition caterers (teachers) organized by some consulting agencies in cooperation with relevant departments.
It should be said that A B C countries recognize it, but B is a professional certificate (requiring a doctor's application); C is that the industry domain certificate may be effective in the field of health care; As a professional qualification, A is the most authoritative certificate, because his certification body is the Ministry of Labor and Social Security.
The training courses for nutritionists organized by local nutrition societies are issued with the certificates of nutrition societies, which cannot represent the national vocational qualification certificates, but only show that they have been trained in the theoretical knowledge of nutritionists.
"Registered international dietitian" is just a hype of some institutions. As an "international registration", it is an uncertain institution. At present, no national institution can represent the international community. Therefore, I hope that scholars will act cautiously.
