Sound knowledge of sport and exercise nutrition can ensure a healthy balance between exercise and diet for a range of athletes, from amateur to elite levels within different sports.

Applicants must also demonstrate evidence of competence in written and spoken English (e.g. GCSE grade C or equivalent).
