Time Required to Complete the Dietary Data Tutorial

Your pace working through the tutorial will be greatly influenced by your previous knowledge, technical ability, and the amount of time you invest in the homework and quizzes at the end of each module. The estimated time for a person to work from the beginning to the end of the tutorial is 1.5-4 working days.  You don’t have to complete the entire tutorial all at once.  Its flexible modular structure allows you do it at your own pace and in discrete chunks if that works better for you.  Remember also that this is just an estimate, and that some courses and modules will probably take more time to go through than will others, depending on the depth at which you review the material.
