If you put in 10 to 12 hours of learning time per week, the total completion time is approximately 6 months.
Which payment options are available?

Can I do the training even if I'm not on a raw vegan diet?
Yes, of course. An essential prerequisite is an interest in a plant-based diet and a healthy lifestyle. It is not the goal to eat 100% raw vegan. Rather, we want to achieve a high level of health and vitality.
As Holistic Health & Nutrition Coach with a plant based focus, can I also advise people with a mixed diet?
Yes, of course!
Our training program is holistic. The goal is to meet clients in their current situation and guide them through individual steps to a nutrient-rich and healthy diet.
For more information about the plant based approach click >> HERE.
Where can I turn for questions and uncertainties during the training?
The online forum and our email support allow you to ask questions anytime. Our community encourages the exchange of information and the formation of study groups with other students.
How can I prepare for the final exam?
The final exam consists of two parts:
Part 1: Multiple-Choice Test
On the campus, you’ll find short online quizzes for each lesson. These practice questions help you review the content and prepare specifically for the first part of the final exam.
Part 2: Case Study
In the second part, you’ll work on a case study. This allows you to apply what you’ve learned to a real-life scenario – just as you would in a future couching session. In Lesson 28, you’ll find several sample case studies to help you understand the structure, scope, and approach.
Additionally: To successfully complete the certification, participation in at least four live Zoom meetings is required. These monthly sessions offer valuable guidance, allow you to ask questions, and help deepen your understanding of the course content – making them an important part of your exam preparation.
How will I be prepared to begin my Holistic Health & Nutrition Coach career?
Lesson 28 is dedicated to teaching you practice-oriented coaching skills. Communication and valuable questioning techniques, templates for things like a session contract, a case history or a nutrition plan will prepare you to coach your future clients in the best possible way.
What career opportunities do I have with the certification?
The certification will allow you to start your own business, open your own practice, serve your own clients and provide individual coaching in person or online. Or you could work with a doctor, a physiotherapist, a dentist, yoga teachers, naturopaths or you could give seminars and workshops in schools, retirement homes or companies.
