Qualify as a Nutritional Coach and Natural Health Practitioner through our unique online course
Our ONLINE certification program is based on the same groundbreaking curriculum as our in-class option. It is the perfect solution for those who wish to attend our certification course, but simply cannot make it due to distance and time constraints.
Module recordings
Each 2-day module held in New York is filmed and uploaded to our website page approximately 4-5 days after commencement. You will receive a secure coded link that will give you access to each weekend module, allowing you to watch the classes at your own pace. In order to keep up with the flow of the course you will have one month to view each module before the next one begins.
Option to attend live classes
Online students are welcome at any stage to attend any modules in NYC at no extra charge. It is recommended you try to attend in person as many as you can: practical cooking classes are highly recommended. If you wish to join the New York group for any module, you will need to notify the school one month in advance, otherwise a seat in the class is not guaranteed. The venue of each live weekend will be announced to registered students two weeks in advance.
Online classroom
Both in-house in New York and online classes begin in October. In order to bring all students together and maintain the intimate classroom atmosphere, both online and in-house participants will be granted access to the online classroom where you will be able to interact with other students and faculty via chats and forums, ask questions, share resources, recipes, experiences, complete assignments, and read supplementary materials.
Course Materials
After registering for the online program we will mail you our printed workbooks that are written specifically for the Academy curriculum. Any extra handouts that teachers provide during their weekends will be posted in the Online Classroom.
We are excited about new educational opportunities available to online learners and strive to create an environment rich with ongoing support, online community tools, and experiential assignments.
