The Nutrition Advisor diploma course is divided into 6 modules that are fully referenced, providing you with research data on a wealth of topics. Most of the study can take place in the comfort of your own home. In order to comply with course accrediting bodies, attendance at 1 x two-day tutorial is required before the end of module 6. Upon completion of each module there is a written homework assignment to submit for assessment. Written feedback is given for each assignment, and email and telephone support is available if needed. All tutorials are held in Devon
The overall emphasis of course assignments is for you to demonstrate your ability to give clear and accurate nutritional/dietary/lifestyle advice. The modules are the first six of the Naturopathic Nutritional Therapy course so should you decide to continue your studies and move on to the next stage, you will not need to start a completely new course

Don’t worry if science has never been your strongpoint; these are fascinating subjects and their inclusion in the course is aimed to help you gain a deeper understanding of the effects nutrients have in the body. Many students who were initially somewhat in awe of this science found they developed a deep passion for it as they discovered the web-like interactions of the body’s organs and systems that profoundly affect us all
