Who It’s For

Why Do This Course

Two Halves That Belong Together

Nutrition knowledge on its own is a hobby. Paired with business basics, it becomes something you can build around.

Sports Nutrition in Detail

Fuelling before, during and after exercise gets proper attention. So do hydration and how the body uses nutrients.

The Business Side Is Practical

Insurance, registration, marketing and day to day running are all covered. Those are the questions that stop people starting.

Where The Skills Fit

Where These Skills Could Take You

Health food, wellness programs and supplement retail all need nutrition knowledge. Honest selling matters as much. The business half opens the self employed route.

Health Food Retail Manager

Runs a store, its stock and its staff.

Wellness Program Coordinator

Organises workplace or community wellness programs.

Nutrition Products Sales Rep

Sells supplements and health products to trade buyers.

Health Cafe Manager

Manages a health focused cafe and its menu.

Online Nutrition Entrepreneur

Builds a small online business around nutrition content.

Business Development Officer

Grows accounts and partnerships in the health sector.

Roles are examples of where these skills are used. They are not promised outcomes. This course does not qualify you to give clinical dietary advice.

Common Questions

Do I need study behind me?

None is needed. The course starts with basic nutritional principles.

How long does it take?

Around 100 study hours, with unlimited access. There is no set schedule, so the pace is yours.

What does it cost?

Plans start from $29 a week, paid weekly, fortnightly or monthly. No deposit and no credit check apply.

Can I work as a nutritionist after this?

You finish with solid nutrition knowledge and business groundwork. Clinical and dietetic practice needs university study and registration. This one points at retail, wellness programs and small business.
