Animal nutritionist: Training

In this fast-moving area of science there is an increasing emphasis on continuing professional development (CPD). Training opportunities may include a variety of in-house courses, as well as specialised external courses, on subjects such as relevant new legislation and scientific advances.

Many opportunities for professional networking and updating knowledge and skills are available through attending conferences and events organised by a range of bodies. The Nutrition Society has details of conferences and short courses on its website.

You will also be expected to take responsibility for keeping yourself up to date by reading technical and scientific journals and subscribing to online resources, e.g. Feedinfo News Service and the British Society of Animal Sciences (BASES) .
