Because of the niche-focused messaging I infused into my website after taking the CDC course, I was located online by a naturopathic doctor who expressed interest in working with me (as we shared the same niche). We are now partnering on a tech start-up to create personalized recommendations to couples planning to conceive so they can optimize their health prior to pregnancy and have the healthiest baby possible. We launch the pilot of our site within the next few days 😀— Kristen C., NTP

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What advantage does this course have over the other online career development courses for holistic health professionals?
This course has been created exclusively for holistic health professionals such as nutritional therapy practitioners, health coaches, fitness trainers, or yoga instructors, and is delivered and facilitated by instructors with real-world experience in running practices and businesses. It is highly customized for your needs based on your unique training.
In addition, the level of personal attention, mentorship, and support offered in this course far exceeds what you will find in most business courses available, at a fraction of the price.
Do I have to take the course on a schedule within the 8 weeks? When are the coaching calls and what happens if I have scheduling conflicts?
All calls will be recorded and you’ll have access to the course materials for one week after the course completes.
We already had a business basics module in our NTP program. How is this different?
In the business basics module inside the NTP program, we present the key basics of what should be considered when starting a business. While it provides a great business overview, the core focus of the NTP course is on foundational nutrition knowledge, not a deep dive into the business side of being a practitioner.
The Career Development Course distills the most important business lessons and experience from practitioners who have been in practice for years, significantly reducing the learning curve of launching and expanding your business.
Is there an ideal time to take this course? What if I haven’t started my business yet? What if I’ve already been practicing for a while?
Regardless of where you are in your business journey, the Career Development Course will help you grow, expand, and move to the next level. You can use this information to sign up your first paying clients while you’re still enrolled in the course as easily as you can use it to multiply your existing client base and create a waiting list for your services.
You mentioned that we’d be divided into small learning cohorts. What are these and how do they work?
These small groups meet together regularly and tackle challenges together. Your small group will have no more than forty people, and hand-selected mentors that have real-world, proven business success will facilitate your group. These groups afford you the opportunity to learn from some of the best alumni and work together in a more intimate environment to build on each other’s thinking.
How is the course delivered?
The course is delivered through our Brightspace learning platform, which is accessible from a desktop browser or mobile device. We will provide you with all of the information you need to set up your account once you enroll.
Is there a payment plan available for this course?
Not at this time. Currently, we only offer payment plans for our NTP courses, but are thinking of ways to provide this in the future!
When will the Career Development Course be offered again?
We will be offering the course only a few times throughout the year. Please check back here to view the above “Your Investment” for specific dates.
How much time will I need to set aside to be successful with this course?
You should expect to devote approximately four hours per week to the video content, reading, and assignment work. There will be daily, facilitated discussion groups as well. The more you put into the course, the more you will get out of it!
What will I receive when I complete this course?
Upon successful completion of the Career Development Course, you will be awarded a certificate of completion. The NANP has approved the Career Development Course for 30 Category 1 CEUs, and your certificate of completion serves as appropriate documentation.
Please note: at this time, CEUs are not being reviewed by NTA as set forth by the new interim membership plan. For the most up to date information on NTA membership and CEUs, visit our membership page HERE.
What if I still have questions?
You are welcome to send an email to nta@nutritionaltherapy.com and someone will get back to you soon.
What if I need support between Q & A calls?
The mentors and lead instructor will be available for you in the discussion forums and will be facilitating regular dialogue and providing feedback on your work. Your lead instructor will also be available during scheduled office hours for laser coaching.
If I try the course out and don’t like it, can I get a refund?
This course is so valuable that once you start, you should finish it. Since the course is priced at a significant discount, once the course has been started there is no refund.
How can I tell if I’m doing well in the course? Is it graded?
The course is not graded but you will get regular feedback on the assignments from your mentor as well as some feedback from the lead instructor.
Are there required materials or technology I need to use for taking this course?
The course is delivered through our Brightspace learning platform, which is accessible from a desktop browser or mobile device. We will provide you with all of the information you need to set up your account once you enroll. You will also need a copy of The PEACE Process, by Miriam G. Zacharias, available here.
