Abstract

An update on continuing education in clinical nutrition is made, based on the elements learned in a diploma course on higher medical education in topics related to university and society, medical didactics, syllabus design, qualitative research and teaching-educational process. It is imperative to address the teaching and learning of clinical nutrition on the basis of the scientific method. The teaching of clinical nutrition in undergraduate and postgraduate courses, with special emphasis on the latter, is recognized as a problem in different regions (European Union, North America and Latin America), in which the right of hospitalized patients to receive high quality nutritional care by highly competitive teams is established, as well as the commitments of the administrative managers to facilitate the training, and self-development of health care teams in clinical nutrition topics.
