This is a two-day course and participants must attend both classes. The certification exam will take place on the second day of classes. Please bring a valid photo ID to the exam.
The class will be taught by Extension Nutrition & Wellness Educator, Lisa Peterson and provides the minimum classroom work to prepare for the National Certification Examination.

Certificates need to be renewed every five years.
