ISAK Accreditation Course in Anthropometry

Level 1

In our next course, dedicated to Kineanthropometry, we will explore the fascinating world of measuring human body composition. Kinanthropometry is a crucial area of science that analyzes changes in body dimensions caused by a wide variety of factors, such as lifestyle, nutrition, activity levels and the ethnic composition of populations. The accuracy of measurements and the importance of measurements are determinants of professionalism and have an absolutely decisive impact on the effectiveness of professional practice.
The International Society for the Advancement of Kinathropometry (ISAK) was created to promote this field and develop international standards for anthropometric assessment. The course will be taught by two ISAK-certified instructors (level III), guaranteeing high-quality training in line with international anthropometric assessment standards.
This course is particularly aimed at professionals in the food and nutrition sciences and the life and health sciences in general. The purpose is to impart knowledge and provide the tools to take the understanding of kinanthropometry to the next level. Join us for a methodologically rigorous and enriching learning experience that will broaden your professional horizons and quality of service.
Welcome to Academia Clínicas Espregueira!

OBJECTIVES

  Explain and discuss assumptions of kinanthropometry, as well as, its importance and limitations in body composition assessment;
  Evaluate and interpret the results obtained in the anthropometric evaluation;
  Recognize the importance of using an international standardized protocol and the technical error of intra-observer measurement;
  Develop motor skills for measuring the 21 indicators (skin folds, circumferences, diameters, and basic measurements).
Description

Limited to 21 places

During the course, the option of reaccreditation is available upon request and payment of a 99€ fee.
