Creating an Online Course
in 10 Steps:
The Ideal Value-Add for Dietitians
Joe Leech is a Dietitian from Sydney,
with a Master’s degree in nutrition
and dietetics. He’s also the founder of
science-based website Diet vs. Disease.
What he’s best known for, however, are
his online courses.

Joe creates written and video
content for those living with diet-related
health conditions and diseases, and his
online courses have gained a strong
following. They serve to break down
dense information – such as scientific
reviews and bodies of evidence -- into
easily digestible and appealing visual
content.
We spoke with Joe recently for our
DC podcast and came away with
10 steps on how you, too, can create
an online course as a value-add for
your dietetics business. See overleaf...

Why online courses? As Joe says, if
dietitians don’t start keeping up in this
fast-paced digital world, they will face a
disadvantage in the long run. And while
online courses will never be a substitute
for personalised advice from a dietitian,
they can serve as a supplementary
communication channel to help educate
clients and provide background to help
inform future in-person consultations.
