Graduation in Arts
DDHN , VLCC Institute
“ I have completed my course from Pitampura Institute in Feb,2015. I was
earlier occupied with my family .After the completion of this course, I did my internship in
VLCC centre Rajouri garden . After the internship I got placement in
“GLAXOSMITHKLINE”(HORLICKS) .My designation is as a Dietician & earning around
18,000 per month as a starting salary. When I came to VLCC institute, I was not only
scared but a little unsure of what will I do in my life. Before this course, I was not working
and was occupied in my family with no future plan. Today after completion of my DDHN
course, I am working with GlaxoSmithKline & I was selected on the basis of my knowledge
as well as my personality which was groomed due to 14kgs weight loss achievement only
on the basis of my learning during the course. Thank you VLCC and my faculty for helping
me realize my potential and inculcating belief that I can do it. Now, I am more confident and
have a new vision to see life”

“ I have completed my course from VLCC Institute
Pitampura in Feb 2015 . Earlier, I was organizing Garment exhibitions in Five Star hotels
but I managed to switch my interest to Health Industry where nutrition plays an important
role. So, currently I’m doing free lancing & earning 30,000 per month as Nutrition
Counselor. I’m working with Gurman child care, Tilak Nagar. I have got my clients in
Gurgaon, Sushant lok, Patparganj- IP Extention as well as I ‘m running my clinic in
Paschim Vihar. My quest for knowledge on nutrition & health drove me to join VLCC’s
DDHN course . It gave me details on how to bring good health through nutrition , how to
make people loose weight & also to treat them to cure various medical ailments. I like
Anatomy & Physiology as it helps me how to relate body weight with good nutrition in a
balanced way. Now I’m practicing as a diet counselor & enjoying my success thoroughly.
Thanks to VLCC Institute for shaping my life”

B.Sc Microbiology, Nagpur University

“ I ‘m Pursuing DDHN course from VLCC Institute,
Pitampura . Earlier, I was a housewife but now I’m interested in working . Since I am
from Nagpur I also wanted to do this course but due to lack of options there ,this was
an unfulfilled wish. With time, I got married and migrated to Delhi. I joined VLCC
Institute as it had no age bar & the class hours suited to me. Today, being a
housewife, I have been able to improve my family's nutrition & well being. My kids
are now aware of good food & value of nutrition. I feel more confident after pursuing
this course ”
