The American Nutrition Association (ANA) welcomes IFMCP’s to become supervisors for Certified Nutrition Specialist (CNS) candidates.  CNSs are advanced, degreed personalized nutrition professionals.  As such, your participation as a CNS supervisor offers you and your practice many benefits:

• It provides you with an excellent opportunity to fully integrate nutrition into your practice through the services of a highly qualified CNS candidate, resulting in enhanced outcomes for your patients.
• You will not only help advance the career of this professional, but you will support the mission of nutrition as a foundational tool in the prevention and management of chronic disease.
• Helping a nutrition professional grow will broaden your own knowledge base and clinical nutrition skills.

CNS candidates must complete 1,000 hours of clinical practice experience under the supervision of a qualified practitioner, such as an IFMCP.  The experience may be gained through in person work at your clinic or in a remote, telehealth setting.  Qualified practitioners may supervise part or all of the required hours.
