Calculating the nutrient content of recipes is an essential skill for dietitians and nutritionists as well as other professionals working in a range of settings, including clinical, education, health and social care, food manufacturing and food service. The Recipe Analysis: Maximising Accuracy course offers practical and educational sessions designed to update and enhance the knowledge and skills of food and nutrition professionals in recipe analysis. In particular, it is designed to provide a learning opportunity for professionals to understand how they can identify and minimise known errors in nutritional analysis.
