Real Education for People Who Believe in Real Food
Our Nutritional Therapy Training Programs are uniquely based on a foundational holistic approach to nutrition. Both the Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP) and the Nutritional Therapy Consultant (NTC) programs offer specific tools for managing clients and assessing the body’s nutritional deficiencies using the body’s innate intelligence. We teach you how to address those weaknesses through a properly prepared, whole food diet, supplementation, and lifestyle changes.
AN EDUCATION IN FUNCTIONAL, HOLISTIC NUTRITION
The Nutritional Therapy Association is a nutrition school for those seeking a foundational and holistic approach for assessing nutritional deficiencies in the body. Our curriculum is evidence-based and backed by science while honoring bio-individuality and the body’s natural capacity to heal.
Whether you’re looking to expand your health and wellness career or you want to learn how to better care for your family’s health, we have programs and courses available to meet your educational needs.
OPPORTUNITIES FOR PROFESSIONALS + INDIVIDUALS
This program is available to professionals who want to enhance their practice by offering nutritional guidance to their clients as well as those who are ready to embark on a new career in nutritional therapy.
We also offer courses for students who want to deepen their knowledge of holistic nutrition, perhaps so that they can improve their own health or to also help care for the well-being of their family.
ONLINE AND IN-PERSON COACHING + WORKSHOPS
We’re flexible! The NTA offers a blend of flexible online learning opportunities and in-person workshops with instructors to provide hands-on training with face-to-face instructor coaching.
ACCESSIBLE PRICE POINT
The NTA offers financing options and awards partial scholarships based on financial need.
It’s Foundational
At the NTA, we believe that many of the health problems plaguing modern society are the result of poor nutrition. The NTA is dedicated to helping healthcare professionals understand and reverse the negative effects of the modern Western diet on their patients and clients. The educational philosophy of the NTA is founded on four key areas: bio-individuality, transformative education, functional nutrition, and using a hands-on approach.
Bio Individuality
We’re all different. There is no one-size-fits-all diet for everyone. Each of us is unique with highly individualized nutritional requirements.
Transformative Education
We’re mold breakers. We teach students to become paradigm shifters. Our goal is to reconnect people to healing foods and vibrant health.
Functional Nutrition
We’re scientifically minded. The Nutritional Therapy Training program is focused on a holistic, evidence-based, comprehensive and personalized approach to health and healing.
Hands on Approach
We’re hands-on with a purpose. We teach you how to do a Functional Clinical Assessment (FCA). Practitioners learn to palpate a series of points on the body, which correlate to specific organs or bodily systems, to identify nutritional deficiencies and dysfunction.
