Course Frequently Asked Questions

What is the main difference between this course and a Level 6 Degree in Nutritional Therapy? Our Level 6 Vocational Diploma is a professionally focused qualification designed to equip you with the practical skills and clinical experience needed to work as a Nutritional Therapist. While both qualifications are at the same level, a degree is more academic and research-based, often taking 3+ years. Our diploma offers a more direct, flexible route into clinical practice, ideal for mature learners or career changers seeking to work in private or integrative health settings.

Are there assignments, exams and case studies? How is the course assessed? At the end of most of the modules there will be some type of assignment, usually short essay style, Q&A or self-reflection. There is also an end of course knowledge review. All learners have to undertake 25 nutritional therapy sessions, which constitutes your case studies. We give ample training prior to this, and help our learners to access people looking to volunteer.

Do you provide client forms and programmes? We provide you with a wide range of client forms. Whilst you are free to use these, we always encourage you to create your own when you know how you best work. We also provide some generic programmes for you, and again, we provide these to use, but more importantly to show you how to create your own that are unique to you, and what you offer. Working generically is not the best way when it comes to working with clients, and we teach you how to tailor the programmes to suit your clients. We also teach how to work with companies that will provide you with blood testing and diagnostic services, so that you can offer an even fuller service to your clients.

What support do you offer? We pride ourselves in offering the best support around! As well as fortnightly supervised online peer support groups, we offer monthly supervision, and pastoral support. We also have a thriving online peer support platform, where our students, mentors and graduates offer each other support. For those who can visit us in Manchester, we offer regular face-to-face networking events at our beautiful Monastery venue. We have a student support team to help you with the day-to-day questions, and tutors are available for anything technical.

Do I need to attend live sessions? Whilst we do offer live Zoom teaching sessions, these are not compulsory. However, many insurance companies do not insure online courses without you having attended live sessions (can be online as in Zoom). In order for you to pass your course, you will need to complete case studies, and if you do not attend some of the sessions where we teach you how to do these competently, chances are your case studies will not meet our standard. Also, if we do not see you on any live sessions at all, you will be required to be interviewed by our assessor team to ensure you are competent practically.

Why is your course considerably less than others with similar accreditations? We are quite unique in that we are a not-for-profit training company. Because we do not have to pay out dividends to shareholders, we can keep our course fees low. We also do not employ sales people to sell our courses. If you book a call to discuss a course, you will speak to one of our actual course tutors, who are best placed to give you the most accurate advice about the course and the industry, and don't follow a script.

Which organisations can I join? The course is accredited by the Federation of Nutritional Therapy Practitioners and we recommend you join upon graduation.
