Benefits of getting certified as a Triage Nutrition Coach?

Real World Focused

Our course material is not just an expensive nutrition textbook. We have taken all of the latest evidence based information and tested it in the real world, and the course material is a reflection of all that we have learned in what works and what doesn’t work. All of the fluff and theoretical hypothesising is removed, and what you get is the refined product that will allow you to actually help someone with their nutrition in real life. We always aim to show you how this information can be used in the real world with real people.

Completely Online Learning 

The course material is all online, and thus you can learn wherever you are at your own pace. It is location independent and thus you aren’t constrained by only being able to learn from the education institutions in your area. We don’t do any “client retention” marketing strategies like drip feeding you content over weeks, you are free to learn at your own pace and you can access the content whenever you are ready. If you finish the entire course in 2 weeks or 2 years, it is entirely up to you, your schedule and other life commitments.

Time & Cost Effective 

If you wanted to get certified as a nutritionist by a university, you would be looking at a minimum of 3-4 years of study. Depending on where you live, this can end up costing between €20,000 and €100,000, and that doesn’t even include the living expenses incurred while going to university. At the end of all that, you still may not even have the expertise to actually coach people, as university courses are more concerned with teaching you foundational science, or how to perform nutrition research and not how to coach. So you may end up needing to further up-skill and get certified by an organisation that actually teaches you how to coach your clients. We have had many university graduates join the course to learn how to actually coach nutrition, despite being highly knowledgeable about nutrition science. As our course is all online, you also are not restricted to the universities close to you, and you won’t have to commute or fit your job around your studies.

Earn More Money 

As our course is focused on learning how to actually coach people towards better nutrition, you will immediately improve your ability to produce results with your clients. This is a major selling point, as most coaches do not have a well equipped toolbox to help their clients with, and thus do not get great results. With the knowledge you learn on the course, you will be able to help more people, get better results and be able to make more money. Nutritionists can make a lot of money, if they know what they are doing and are able to help people to get the results they want. Our course will show you how to get consistent results with your clients and allow you to stand out in a crowded market. You will become known as the person that is able to get phenomenal results with your clients by helping them master their nutrition. If you are a personal trainer and you aren’t able to help your client with nutrition, you are always going to be outsold by the trainers who can help with nutrition.

Lifetime Access to the Course

You get lifetime access to the course content, which will continue to be updated with the latest nutrition research and coaching best practices. This course shouldn’t be viewed as something you just get through once and then never look at again. No, the course should be viewed as a lifetime resource that you can continually come back to and learn the latest information on nutrition coaching. This massively increases the value of the course, as you are effectively getting a free nutrition course update each year.

CPD Accredited

Our course is fully accredited with the CPD Standards Authority. This means that this course has undergone rigorous third-party assessment of the content, delivery and various policies to meet a standard worthy of continuing professional development (CPD) points.

This confirms that our certification is:

  • High quality across both content and delivery.
  • Based on accurately developed and responsibly sourced information.
  • Delivered in an engaging way for learners.
  • Relevant to our learner’s needs.
  • Delivering retainable skills that can be actively implemented.

What Does the Course Entail?

Our course material is delivered through an online learning management system. It is set up to maximise the learning experience and ensure you are assimilating the information into a cohesive framework that you can use to get results with your clients.

We utilise written, audio, video and visual content to ensure you fully grasp the topics being discussed, along with references and further reading for those that want to truly expand their knowledge and understanding of the topics being discussed.

What Does the Course Cover?

The content covered in this course intends to provide you with the theoretical and practical knowledge to coach your clients toward better performance, body composition, and health. To achieve this, we cover the following primary topics:

Digestion, Assimilation and Metabolism

You need to have an understanding of digestion and assimilation to begin to understand nutrition. Layering on an understanding of metabolism will allow you to take your knowledge to another level.

Calories and Macronutrients

You must understand calories and macronutrients to be able to help someone with their diet. This is foundational knowledge that will allow you to make dietary recommendations.

Food Selection

While understanding calories and macronutrients allows you to cover the quantitative side of the diet, people don’t eat calories and macros, they eat food. You need to understand food selection to help them.

Tiered Nutrition Coaching

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition. Understanding foundational nutrition science is important, but as a nutrition coach, you have to know how to actually integrate that information into someone’s life. We show you a variety of ways you can implement nutrition change in someone’s life using the Triage Tier System of nutrition.

Client Intake and Assessment

You must have a baseline understanding of the logistics of coaching someone to better nutrition. While understanding what to do to improve someone’s nutrition is important, you have to have solid logistics to be able to help someone with their nutrition over time. Having effective intake and assessment process is vital to this process.

Coaching Nutrition

We focus heavily on the coaching of nutrition and the effective planning and implementation of nutritional programming over time. While understanding foundational nutrition science is important, understanding how to actually coach that knowledge and craft a long term plan to help someone achieve their goals is the goal of a nutrition coach.

Each of these subjects is further subdivided into multiple lessons, delving deep into the science that is necessary, and then zooming out to focus on what really matters for you and your clients. We very clearly discuss how to coach nutrition, and this is not a science course that will overwhelm you with unnecessary depth. It is also not just surface-level soundbites like “it’s just calories that matter”. We zoom in and out as necessary, so you can get the best results with your clients.

Along with the content provided, you will receive supplementary support and guidance from course tutors. This is essential during your education. You need to ask questions, and you need to have them answered by those who have gone above and beyond in their pursuit of knowledge before you. That is what we are here for.

By the end of the course, you will be able to call yourself a Nutritionist and Nutrition Coach and you will be able to count yourself among some of the most well-positioned individuals to impact people’s health. You will have the skills required to coach someone towards better nutrition and lifestyle practices.

If you have a background in nutrition you may be able to move through the course faster than someone who doesn't. With that said, approximately 60-100 hours should see the vast majority of students complete the course. Once you are enrolled, you will also have lifetime access to any future updates and therefore the course does grow over time.

Nutrition coaches are incredibly well positioned to help people with their health, especially with the rise of lifestyle related diseases, their skills are only going to be increasingly in demand in the future.
