Metabolic Balance approved for NANP Category I CEUs
Earlier this month the National Association of Nutrition Professionals (NANP) approved the Metabolic Balance® Coach Certification Program for a total of 24 NANP Category I Continuing Education Units (CEUs) on a one contact hour to one continuing education unit equivalency.
NANP strives to enhance the integrity of the holistic nutrition profession. This is achieved by a strict set of educational standards. Pre-approved NANP Category I Programs go through a rigorous review process, that validates adherence with the NANP Educational Standards, including full access to all program materials and online access for programs that are taught in a virtual environment. Required materials include lesson plans, learning objectives, required reading lists, proprietary reading materials and samples of homework, quizzes, exams, writing assignments, and final exams.
NANP Professional Members are required to earn ten CEUs annually for membership renewal. Members can combine Category I and Category II CEUs to achieve the required ten CEUs; however a minimum of five CEUs must be Category I. Members who are Board Certified in Holistic Nutrition® are required to earn thirty CEUs per two year term to maintain board certification; fifteen of which must be Category I.
The metabolic balance® Coach Certification combines an online certification course, which is offered through our metabolic balance eTraining Institute and covers the scientific basics and medical fundamentals of the metabolic balance® Program, with a one-day seminar, where we teach nutrition basics and program execution of the metabolic balance®. The 3rd pillar in our Education Framework is a broad variety of continuous education webinars with topics ranging from detailed Nutrition Information, Eating Habits, Lifestyle Changes to Effective Sales & Marketing and Social Media.
