I couldn't be happier with my experience in Stanmore School of Business's Professional Certificate in Maternal and Infant Nutrition. As a UK-based midwife, I was looking for a course to expand my knowledge in this specific area, and I was not disappointed. The course content was engaging, evidence-based, and covered a broad range of topics that were directly applicable to my work. I particularly appreciated the section on nutrition for preterm infants, as this is a growing concern in my practice. The course materials were of high quality, and the assessments allowed me to demonstrate my understanding effectively. Overall, I am more confident in my ability to provide the best care for mothers and their infants, and I highly recommend this course to healthcare professionals interested in this field.

I recently completed the Professional Certificate in Maternal and Infant Nutrition from Stanmore School of Business, and I'm glad I did. The course offered practical, real-world knowledge and skills that I could immediately apply in my role as a public health nutritionist. I found the modules on cultural competence and addressing nutrition-related challenges in diverse communities to be incredibly valuable. The course materials were relevant and up-to-date, and I liked that the assessments were flexible and allowed for creative thinking. While I would have appreciated more interactive elements, I still found the course to be engaging and informative. I'm grateful for the opportunity to enhance my expertise in this critical area.

I'm thrilled to have taken this course and feel more empowered to make informed decisions about my family's nutrition.

I enrolled in Stanmore School of Business's Professional Certificate in Maternal and Infant Nutrition to expand my knowledge as a childcare provider. The course did not disappoint! I found the content to be engaging, informative, and directly applicable to my work. The modules on complementary feeding and picky eating were especially useful, as I often encounter these challenges with the children in my care. The course materials were clear and concise, and the assessments allowed for practical application of the material. While I would have liked more opportunities for discussion with other students, I still found the course to be an excellent learning experience. I highly recommend this course to anyone working with young children or expecting parents.
