Monash University academic recognised by dietitians' peak body

Janeane Dart

Congratulations SCS senior lecturer Janeane Dart who recently received the prestigious Advanced Accredited Practising Dietitian (AdvAPD) credential.

Awarded by Australia’s peak nutrition body, the credential is only given to five of the country’s leading dietitians.

The highly-regarded credential, which is endorsed by the Dietitians Association of Australia (DAA), recognises proactive leaders who integrate high level nutrition and dietetic skills to influence the health of the community.

“I am very pleased to have received the Advanced APD recognition,” said Janeane. “I feel the credential is a valuable recognition of my career progress to date.”

“Only 100 dietitians in Australia have received this recognition, including three other staff in the Department of Nutrition and Dietetics.”

Janeane is planning to start her PhD at Monash University later this year; her topic will be ‘Defining and Assessing Professionalism in Nutrition and Dietetics’.
