Nutrition Services Division New Learning Site


We are excited to announce the soft launch of the Nutrition Services Division (NSD) Learning Site! This new learning management system (LMS) will become the primary venue for delivering virtual training content to satisfy your annual mandatory training requirements as well as training to support and enhance your program operations and beyond. This new site will eventually replace the current Course Catalog. Learning formats include online courses, videos, and instructor-led training. The site will also include links to resources, downloadable materials, and certifications of training completion.

The NSD Learning Site is available to Child Nutrition Program (CNP) operators, which include directors, managers, and both full and part-time staff along with Food Service Management Contract (FSMC) staff with a current contract with a School Food Authority (SFA). Upon accessing the site, the SFA director or manager is requested to instruct their key FSMC staff to complete their site self-registration process.

Account Setup & Guided Tour Webinars

We will be hosting two webinars to provide a walk-through of the steps for completing the site self-registration process and a guided tour of the new site.

Site Use and Target Audience

The use of this new learning management site is for CNP Operators and FSMC staff with active contracts with an SFA to take courses to satisfy mandatory training, professional standards requirements, and additional trainings to support the successful administration of the CNPs.
