Health Nutrition
You are requested to go through this guide carefully before you proceed to the course
material. It is further suggested that whenever you have a question to ask us, do
look into this Guide. You will most likely find the answer to your question. If you
do not, get in touch with your Regional Centre for information.
The candidates are required to opt only for such a study centre in which the programme is
I activated. As far as possible the University will allot the study centre opted by the candi-
date. However, the University may change the study centre at its convenience without
concurrence without concurrence of the student at any time.
Printed material is your backbone. Our study material is prepared by teams of experts
keeping in view the interest of the learner group. Each course has a Course
Development Committee headed by the Vice-Chancellor and other distinguished
academics and professionals involved in the course preparation. The course material
is written in such a manner that the students can study it by themselves \\ith a little
assistance from our Counsellor at the Study Centres. Further, text books and reference
books arc available in the libraries attached to the Study Centres and Regional Centre.
Therefore. students will have no need for any cheap or condensed guide for following
courses of IGNOU. In fact these may harm them Hence. the University strongly advises
the students not to take recourse to such type of guides.

Dear Learner,
Welcome to the Diploma Programme in Nutrition and Health Education offered by the Indira Gandhi
National Open University (IGNOU). We are sure that you will find the programme interesting, informative
and useful.
IGNOU offers its programmes through the distance education mode. Many of you may be familiar with
correspondence education. Does distance education mean the same? If not, then what is the difference?
Since you are new to this programme of study as well as the distance education mode of learning, t IS
natural that you may have many doubts and queries in the beginning as well as at different stages of
learning at such times you may need a person to look into your problems. Or you may feel like sending
some queries/letters to clarify your doubts. It is also possible that for some reasons you may hesitate to
do so. It may, therefore give you a feeling of isolation. This Programme Guide is an attempt to help you
overcome this feeling of isolation and also to answer some of your queries. It seeks to give you an
overview of the Diploma Programme in Nutrition and Health Education as well as help you understand
the distance education mode of learning. It aims to give you useful guidelines about study materials,
assignments, term-end examination and counselling 3eSSlons.
develop a knowledge base in key areas of nutrition and public health such as diet-health relationships;
planning suitable diets for various age groups; using diet therapy in disease; nutrition and income
generation programmes; communicable diseases-symptoms, prevention and treatment; primary
health care; environmental safety
promote awareness about concepts and principles in communication and their application in nutrition
and health education
develop skills in playing the role of nutrition and health educators in the community with particular
emphasis on methods, approaches and strategies.
Anyone who has completed 10+2 or its equivalent or BPP from IGNOU are eligible for the programme.
The programme duration is one year but you could take upto four years depending on your convenience.
The programme is on offer in English and Hindi.
This Programme gives you indepth theoretical as well as practical knowledge related to the vital task of
nutrition and health education. Academic inputs would be provided by teachers from universities together
with nutrition and health educators working in non-governmental organizations all over the country. The
project work and practicals that forn1 a major component of the programme would help you to conduct
field work and function effectively as nutrition and health educators.
This Diploma is unique, as we mentioned earlier. In essence, it is a professional training programme and
would equip you to plan and conduct nutrition and health education campaigns and programmes in
community settings. There IS no equivalent programme available in this form.
6
How is it going to help in-service community educators?
People working with both Governmental and Non-governmental sectors in the role of community
workers would benefit from this programme. The Diploma would provide an additional qualification
helping them to improve their professional competence and promotion chances.
What employment opportunities does this Diploma provide?
Nutrition and health education is going to be a key focus area. Hence, you could expect to be employed
in either Government programmes or in the vast NGO (Non-governmental organizations) sector. There
is also great potential for self-employment.
Is this Diploma a recognised one?
Indira Gandhi National Open University came into existence by an Act of Parliament. The programmes
offered by IGNOU will be treated on par with those offered by any other central or state university in
the country. So you need not worry about the recognition of the Diploma. Any course launched by
IGNOU is recognised.

5. PROGRAMME FEE
If you pay the tuition fees once, you continue to be on our rolls, even if you take more than one year to
complete the Diploma. However the fee is valid only up to four years from the date of admission.
Besides, it is valid for only the Diploma in Nutrition and Health Education. Fees once paid are not
refundable on any account whatsoever, nor are they transferable.
The Programme fee of Rs. 2000 is paid in one instatement at the time of admission.
6. COURSE STRUCTURE
As the figure indicates, each course is subdivided into blocks and one practical manual. The blocks
themselves consist of between 3-6 units. Material sent to you for DNHE-4 consists of project guidelines
contained in one booklet. So, on the whole, the printed material you receive would include 25+24+21
=70 units, in 18 blocks; 3 practical manuals and one book on project work.
As you go through the theory material, you would realize that each unit has a “structure”. This structure
indicates clearly the components of the unit-its sections and sub-sections. So you get an overview in
advance of what each unit has to offer. The “Introduction” includes the objectives of the unit. This gives
you an idea of what you should aim to achieve while studying the unit. The “Let Us Sum Up” section
towards the end summarizes information contained in the unit while the “Glossary” provides a list of
difficult words, phrases or terms with their meaning. Interspersed throughout the unit are Check Your
Progress Exercises. These are for you to work through as you go through the unit. Answers to these
exercises are given at the end of each unit. However, in some units you may find sample answers or
comments immediately after the questions. In certain other cases we have listed a few activities for you
to do, for which answers may not be provided.

COUNSELLING SESSIONS
For this programme the number of counselling sessions would be as follows:
DNHE-l : 10 sessions DNHE-2 : 10 sessions DNHE-3: 10 sessions
For the DNHE-4 (Project Work) no separate counselling sessions have been allocated. This is because
every learner would work at a different pace and place and hence a common session would not be
useful. So depending on the need, the learner would contact the project counsellor/field guide and
arrange for individual sessions.
13
Examination Fee
Examination fee of Rs. 60/- per course is required to be paid through Bank Draft in favour
of IGNOU payable at Delhi. The examination forms are available at all the Study Centres
and Regional Centres. Students can also submit on-line examination form as per guidelines
through IGNOU website at www.ignou.ac.in Please write your correct enrolment number,
programme code and name at the back of the Demand Draft / IPO drawn in favour of
IGNOU, New Delhi towards payment of late fee and properly tag it to your examination
form to avoid its misplacement.
The examination form received after the due date or without late fee, whenever
applicable shall be rejected.
Examination Centre
Normally the study centre is the examination centre. However, a student is required to fill
the examination centre code in the examination form. You are advised to go through the
list of study centers available in the Student Handbook and Prospectus/ Programme Guide.
In case a student likes to take examination at a particular centre, the code of the chosen
centre has to be tilled up as examination centre code. However, in case an examination
centre chosen by a student is not activated, the university will allot another examination centre
in the same Region.

Early Declaration of Results
Sometimes students are offered admission in other institutions and/or are selected for
employment etc. and they are supposed to submit mark-sheet/grade card within a specified
time period. Such students may apply for an early evaluation of their answer scripts and
declaration of the result. For this purpose, the students are required to apply in the specified
format available on the University website with a fee of Rs. 500/- per course through Bank
Draft in favour of IGNOU, Delhi along with the attested photocopy of the offer of admission/
employment etc. The students can submit their requests for early declaration of result before
the commencement of the Term-end Examination i.e., before 151 June and 151 December
respectively. In such a situation, the University will make arrangements for the processing
of the answer scripts and declaration of the result (as a special case). The result will be
declared in a period of about one mouth beginning from the date of examination.
Re-Evaluation of Anser Script(s)
The students who are not satisfied with the marks/grade secured by them in Term-end
Examination may apply for re-evaluation within one month from the date of the declaration
of result i.e. the date on which the result is made available on the University website on
payment of Rs. 300/- per course in the prescribed application form available on the University
website. The better of the two results i.e. original marks/grade and re-evaluated marks/grade
will be considered and the revised marks/grades shall be incorporated in the student’s record.
The revised grade card/marks-sheet will be sent to the students within one month from the
receipt of application. Re-evaluation i not permissible for Projects, Practicals and Assignments.
Your study centre is normally your examination centre. Change of examination centre is permissible
in exceptional cases for which you have to make a request to: The Registrar (SR&E Division),
Indira Gandhi National Open University, Madan Garhi, New Delhi IIOU68 at least one month
before the commencement of the examination. The request received at the Headquarters thereafter,
will not be entertained.
The Study Centre is the contact point for you. The University cannot send communication to
all the students individually. All the important communication is normally sent to the Coordinators
of the Study Centres and Regional Directors. The Coordinator would display a copy of such
important circulars/notifications on the notice board of the Study Centre for the benefit of all
the students. You are, therefore, advised to keep in touch with your Coordinator so that
you get advance information about assignments, submission of examination forms, date-
sheet, list of students admitted to a particular examination, declaration of result etc.
While communicating with the University regarding examination, please clearly write your enrolment
number and complete address. In the absence of such details, we will not be able to attend
to your problem.
The University normally may require 3 to 4 months to intimate the result of a particular term-
end examination. In the meantime, the dead line for submitting the examination form for re-
appearing in a particular course may expire. This is applicable only if one fails to get a passing
grade. In such cases, it is advisable for you to submit an examination form without waiting for
the result. Once you receive your results and if you find that you have passed in that course,
you need not appear for that course again.
Assignments
You must have received a set of assignments for CFN for this year along with the set of print
material” sent to you. In case you have not received it, please download the same from IGNOU
15
website www.ignou.ac.in go to the ‘‘Student Zone’’ link under this link go to Download and
the assignments.
You have to do one assignment for each course. All the assignments will be considered
for evaluation. Thus, in the Certificate Programme you will have to work on three
assignments for three courses. This means that you have to complete three assignments
in all. All the assignments are ‘Tutor Marked Assignments’ (TMAs). This means that
the questions will be of the long answer, medium answer and short answer types.
Are you wondering what we expect from you in these assignments?
Assignments constitute the continuous evaluation component of a course. They can be done in
your home or work place or library or any other place you think has the right environment.
You may consult suitable persons, books, or other sources for the completion of your assignments.
An assignment, therefore, is not like writing an answer book in the examination hall. It is, however,
equally important as marks are given to assignments after evaluation. As mentioned earlier, the
assignments of a course in CFN carry 30 percent weightage. The marks that ·you get in your
assignments will be counted in your final result. Therefore, you are advised to attempt your
assignments seriously.
The main purpose of assignments is to test your understanding of the learning material you receive
from the University. The information given in the printed course material is normally considered
sufficient for answering the assignments. Please do not worry about the non-availability of extra
reading material for working on the assignments. However, if you have easy access to other books,
you may use them. But the assignments are designed in such a way as to help you concentrate
mainly on printed course material and your personal experience.
Some of the assignments are knowledge based and some are of applied nature. Assignments
which are knowledge based will require you to write short answers. For answering applied type
of assignments as in the case of Practical Activities, you should apply the knowledge you have
gained by going through a Unit/Block/Course. In either case, the answers should be your
own. You must not reproduce text material as such or copy the information from other
sources. However, you can make use of the material and information you have at your disposal
in an innovative way. You can pick up ideas from whatever sources you may have. However,
plan and use them in your own words when you write the answers to the assignments.
The following guidelines have to be strictly practised when you work on the assignments:
The answer should be precise and relevant to the question. Include appropriate examples
where you can.
Keep the word-limit of the answer in mind. A slight variation in length does not matter. But
your answer should not be too short or too lengthy. Avoid discussing minor issues at great
length. By setting a word-limit for some of the assignments we mean to convey that a
reasonably adequate response can be presented within the suggested word-limit.
The assignments you have attempted should be complete in all respects. Before submission
you should ensure that you have answered all the questions in assignments. Incomplete
responses will bring you poor marks.
You must submit your assignments according to the schedule indicated in the assignments.
The University/Coordinator of the Study Centre has the right to reject the assignments received
after the due date. You are, therefore, advised to submit the assignments before the due
date. In case you get the assignments and study material the assignment responses should
16
be submitted within one month of the date of receipt of study material and assignment or
within the due date given in this schedule whichever is later.
For your own record, retain a copy of all the answers to assignment which you submit
to the Coordinator of your Study Centre. If you do not get back the evaluated tutor
marked assignments within a month of their submission, please try to get them from your
study centre personally. This may help you to improve the answers to your future assignments.
Maintain an account of all the corrected responses to assignments received by you after
evaluation. This will help you to correspond with the University in case any problem arises
in future.
If you are unable to submit the assignments or are unable to sc re the minimum qualifying
marks, you have to collect, attempt and submit the assignments meant for the next batch
of students. The new assignments can be downloaded from IGNOU website.
In case you find that the score indicated in the assignment sheet of your assignments has
not been correctly reflected in your grade card you are advised to contact the coordinator
of your study centre with a request to forward correct authenticated award list to the Registrar
(SR&E Division) IGNOU.
Once you get the pass grade in an assignment, you cannot re-submit it for improvement
of grade. Assignments are not subject to re-evaluation except for factual errors, if any. The
discrepancy noticed by you in the evaluated assignments should be brought to the notice
of the Coordinator of the Study Centre.
Do not enclose or express doubts for clarification, if any, along with the assignments. Send
requests for seeking clarifications in a separate cover to:
Registrar (SR&E Division), IGNOU
Maidan Garhi, New Delhi - 110 068.
Always give your complete enrolment no., name, address, title of the course, and the number
of the unit or the assignment, etc., on the top of your letter.
17
Similarly, for reimbursement of programme fees, SC/ST students have to submit their scholarship forms
to the Directorate of Social Welfare or the Social Welfare Officer of the respective state government
through the concerned Regional Director.
Change or Correction of Address
In case there is any correction or change in your address, you are directed to make use of the form at
Annexure No.3. Normally, it takes four to six weeks to effect the change. Therefore, you are advised
to make your own arrangements to redirect the mail to the changed address during the period.
Change of Study Centre
For the purpose of change of Study Centre, you have to send a request to the Director of your Regional
Centre. A copy of the same may be sent to Registrar, SRD, IGNOU, New Delhi.
Change of Region
When you want transfer from one Region to another, you have to write to that effect to the Regional
Centre from where you seek a transfer, marking copies to the Regional Centre where you would like to
be transferred to and to Registrar, Student Registration and Evaluation Division, IGNOU, New Delhi.
Further, you have to obtain a certificate from the Coordinator of the Study Centre from where you are
seeking the transfer. The Regional Director from where you are seeking the transfer will transfer all
records of the Regional Centre where you seek transfer under intimation to you and Registrar, Student
Registration and Evaluation Division, IGNOU, New Delhi. The records are normally sent by Registered
Post to guard against loss in postal transit.
Simultaneous Registration
A student is permitted to register for only programme in one academic session. You are, therefore,
advised not to seek admission for more than one programe in the given academic session. Violation of
this rule attracts cancellation of admission to all the programmes and forfeiture of the programmes fees.
Miscellaneous
The University reserves the right to change the rules detailed in this Programme Guide. However,
you will be informed about those changes through supplementary circulars well in advance.
Please file all letters that the University sends you, and keep the Programme Guide and the
Supplements to the Programme Guide (if any) handy. A record of your progress is maintained at
SRE Division; you must maintain your own record for comparisons, if needed.
All types of communication (letters, application, etc.) are attended to as soon as we can. It is,
therefore, desirable that you make your letters brief and precise. If your letters present irrelevant
details or/and are written in ambiguous and objectionable language, our responses to your queries
will invariably get delayed.
Before you write to us to answer your queries, do look into this Programme Guide. We may
already have answered your query/queries.
Do follow our instructions carefully.
Do write us if you have any difficulties or problems in working through this Programme.
