Applications and payments are now submitted online via this website. The guidance documents are currently being updated to reflect this change.
The evidence portion of RNutr Portfolios must not exceed the equivalent of 50 pages of A4 (therefore equaling a max of 100 digital pages). Do not send entire or large documents, but instead send just the relevant portion of the document that you would like the assessor to consider.
Please inform your referees of your application, as we will contact these shortly after receipt of your application and will not be able to send your portfolio to an assessor until references have been received and all other documentation has been confirmed as enclosed.
ID and Degree Certificates/Transcripts can be certified as true copies of the original documents by any individual of professional standing, providing they are not related to you, do not live at the same address as yourself and is not a close personal friend.
Applications without payment will not be forwarded to the registration team for processing.
