Certificate in Foods and Nutrition (CFN)

The Certificate in Foods and Nutrition is essentially a post-literacy awareness curriculum designed for individuals with fundamental writing and reading abilities. The purpose of the programme is to familiarise the student with how food contributes to a healthy lifestyle for the person, family, and community. It covers topics including food preparation and choice, nutrition from childhood to old age, food economics, kitchen gardening, food tampering, consumer rights, safety, and education, among others. The programme places a strong emphasis on nutrition with a current-day context, cost-effective strategies, and environmentally friendly ways that almost completely cover the country. This helps the learners become responsible and informed citizens of the future.
