What you’ll qualify with.

The nutrition coaches who keep their clients don’t just hand out meal plans. They analyse what a client eats, understand how the body uses food, and help them make changes they can stick to, whether the goal is weight loss, better health or performing at their best.

Our course leads to the Level 4 Certificate in Nutrition for Weight Management and Athletic Performance. You’ll learn to run professional nutrition consultations, analyse food diaries, and coach healthy clients towards their weight and performance goals, whether you work as a nutrition coach on its own or alongside personal training.

You’ll earn the Level 4 Certificate in Nutrition for Weight Management and Athletic Performance (RQF), a national qualification listed on the Regulated Qualifications Framework. It covers national healthy-eating guidelines, fuelling and hydration for exercise and recovery, common diets, food labelling, allergies and intolerances, and supplements.

Your certificate is issued by Focus Awards, a government-regulated national awarding organisation.

CIMSPA is the chartered professional body for UK sport and physical activity, and they’ve awarded us their highest provider rating: ‘Enhancing’.

You don’t need any previous fitness qualifications.

You’ll be assessed on the theory online and upload your portfolio.

TAIT, the first AI tutor in UK fitness education, is with you around the clock for course questions, admin and anything you want to go deeper on. Ask at 11pm on a Friday and you get an answer in seconds, not on Monday.

And when you want a person, you can reach your Success Coaches by phone, email or our Help Desk, Monday to Friday.
