To become a dietitian in Australia, you need to complete an accredited dietetics program. The Nutrition Institute's online nutrition course provides a strong foundation in nutrition, but it does not lead to a formal dietetics qualification. If you aspire to become a dietitian in Australia, you will need to pursue a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Dietetics from a recognised university. This degree program typically includes practical placements and is accredited by the Dietitians Association of Australia (DAA). Upon completion of the accredited program, you can register with the DAA and become a qualified dietitian. Pursuing an online nutrition course is a great first step in discovering whether or not a dietetics degree is right
