I would highly recommend this course to all nutrition directors new or experienced. The SproutCNP team are incredibly knowledgeable on the workings of school nutrition. The Bootcamp [School Nutrition Director Bootcamp] provides a basic rundown of key points to running a nutrition program. After taking this course, I feel more confident in my role and am excited to see what other courses the team at SproutCNP will release. This was worth every penny spent as they step outside of traditional guided learning and provide proven guidance that can be applied to any school nutrition program.
