5 reviews for Infant, Child and Adolescent Nutrition: A Practical Handbook, Second Edition

  1. N. R. H., Registered Dietitian

    It enhanced my knowledge of infant, child and adolescent nutrition and feeding as well as nutrition during pregnancy. This is valuable to me in my daily job and in my personal life.

  2. C. C., Registered Dietitian

    Loved the content and how approachable the writing style was. Also loved the very applicable and frequent examples of menus and meal patterns to portray the information provided.

  3. Samantha Warsh, RDN, CSP, Lead Dietitian, San Diego, CA

    I found the information to be a valuable review of general pediatric nutrition guidelines throughout the life cycle. I especially appreciated sections on vegetarian and vegan diets for pregnant women and children of different ages and what supplements are needed and why.

  4. Leah Harty, RDN, RD, Community Dietitian, Syracuse, NY

    I found the course very valuable. I will be able to use and refer to the book to find reliable nutrition information to pass on to parents and their children. The information provides me with a comprehensive guide to the theory behind nutrition from preconception to adolescence.

  5. Andrea Clark, RD, LD, CLC, Kent, OH

    The information presented in this course was very comprehensive and well-organized. The format of nutrition education across the lifespan is well-studied and written. I appreciated the information on both general nutrition and medical nutrition therapy.

How Testing Works

Skelly Skills offers two types of Continuing Education (CE), also known as Continuing Professional Development (CPD). The two types of CDR-approved CE we offer are:

  1. Prior approved enduring (formerly known as self-study) CE courses using printed, online or eBook formats.
  2. Prior approved live, which are CE webinars.

For each of these types of CE, we offer Continuing Professional Education Units (CPEUs — also called CEUs, clock hours, or CPD hours).

Prior Approved Enduring (formerly Self-study) Courses

Our prior approved enduring CE courses all include a CE exam. This is important for some of you because you *may* be limited by the number of prior approved enduring (aka self-study) hours you can accumulate. For each course, you will need to complete the CE exam through our online testing system. It’s easy and you’ll get your CE Certificate of Completion as soon as you pass the course (or complete the Feedback Survey, in the case of our one-hour on-demand CE webinars).

Prior Approved Live (Live Webinars)

Our live CE webinars include a Feedback Survey. Within 24 hours of the live webinar, we will send an email with the Assessment ID and Key ID to complete the Feedback Survey through our testing system. Once you complete that, you’ll immediately be able to print and/or download your CE Certificate of Completion (it will also be emailed to you).

How to Purchase and Complete a Course

Step 1: Visit Skelly Skills and choose the topic and book or other course type you want to study. The number of CPEUs/CEUs/CPD hours are shown on each product page. Note to international customers: You can change the display currency using the icons on the right of the page.

Step 2: Pay online—you’ll get virtual courses immediately or else you’ll receive the book in the mail along with the CE exam booklet (we call this a ‘CE Evaluation’). Note: for books that we publish in-house, we include the CE exam and testing info in the back of the book, not as a separate booklet.)

Step 3: Study the course content. Once you have finished, complete the online exam at our testing site using the Assessment ID and Key ID (password) provided to you in the CE Evaluation, or on the course webpage if you are completing an on-demand webinar or online course.

That’s it! Once you have passed your exam, you’ll receive a PDF certificate of completion which includes the number of CPEUs/CEUs/CPD hours.
