Part Time Professional Training Courses in Naturopathic Nutrition and Food Allergy Therapy

Courses

Each course has been designed to allow students to achieve the highest possible standards in practice. The syllabus is based on our multidisciplinary approach and involves all aspects of Nutritional Medicine, including Anatomy and Physiology, Practice Management Skills, Counselling and the integrated system approach

The multidisciplinary nature of Naturopathic Nutrition allows us to provide an interesting mixture of student orientated lectures and tutorials following a Holistic model. Although the broad spectrum of Holistic philosophies are covered, the central focus will be upon their application and use in nutritional therapy.

Students are expected to attend lectures and tutorials and to complete coursework and written assignments. During tutorials students will have the opportunity to engage in role-play exercises and develop their practical skills. It is expected that students will take an active part in both discussion sessions and workshop exercises.
