College of Naturopathic Medicine Avis 462

Went to great workshop on Saturday, very interesting subject and an excellent teacher!

This is a place where real (true/authentic) knowledge is shared. It is not a walk through course, however, everything you need to suit your learning style is available. The Directors, speak to you with a vision of their hope in your soon to realise success. Take your time, to read and understand all the provided content before starting your studies. Ask questions, speak to other student to find out what has worked for them. If you have to repeat a class or exam, don’t be discouraged. You will be glad you did to strengthen your knowledge.

I absolutely loved my time at CNM! It was a life changing experience for me. The lecturers were incredible, so knowledgeable and inspiring!

Thank you!

I’ve just finished the CNM health coaching course and honestly—it’s been amazing! I’ve learned so much, and it’s completely changed how my family and I eat. We feel so much better for it. The tutors were brilliant—super knowledgeable, supportive, and really passionate about what they teach. I’m now feeling really inspired and ready to start my own business as a health coach, which is something I never thought I’d be saying! If you’re thinking about doing it, I’d say go for it. It’s one of the best decisions I’ve made.

I thoroughly enjoyed my training at CNM - their Naturopathic principles were the most aligned with my own compared to other Health Coach courses. The depth and breadth of the training are second to none. I thoroughly enjoyed putting my knowledge into practice with case studies.

I am very glad that I chose to study with CNM and it was great to learn from the Principal that my late Naturopath father had actually been a Patron of the college when it opened in 1998.

I am incredibly grateful to have studied at CNM. I truly enjoyed the course content, the lectures, and especially the clinics, which were challenging but thoroughly prepared me for independent consultations.

A special thank you to Marian, Director of Studies, for her unwavering support throughout the course—it meant so much to me. I feel so blessed to have come across CNM and to have had this opportunity.

The course was well-structured, with excellent and up-to-date content. The flexibility of the online format allowed me to successfully balance my studies with both work and family life.

Thank you to everyone at CNM for your dedication. Keep up the great work in promoting health and well-being — your impact truly makes a difference!

The education at the collegue is great! the content they teach is up to date, very complete and holistic.
The teachers have lot of experience and share about their caases. From second year you already see clients.
The staff is also very attentive

I feel so blessed to have come across CNM. I thoroughly enjoyed my studies while completing the Nutrition Diploma. The clinics were quite challenging and prepared me well for independent consultations. The course is well-structured, and the flexibility of studying at home through the online course allowed me to fit my studies around my family commitments.

All the lecturers are gems, and I’m truly thankful to each of them for educating me and enabling me to start a new chapter of my life—one I had been aiming for over the past 25 years. Thank you, CNM!

Unfortunately I didn’t have a good experience. Out of interest I enquired into their courses that I could do while being unwell. I had a conversation with a sales advisor but then kept getting contacted at various times after the call to ask and tell me about the courses and it felt a bit pressuring. I got persuaded into the larger course but was reassured I could come and go at my own pace and have 6 years to complete it. Therefore, I thought ok this is may be manageable. I started the course and saw that I needed to complete 2 exams in the year so I wouldn’t be able to do it at my own pace as there was a lot of material to cover before the exam. The stress of how much was required of me to do the course made my illness worse and I could not continue . However as I had started the course I was not allowed a refund. I was only offered a different course which was more money or to defer to a different start date which would have been more money. So I’ve had to pay £4,000 for the year when I’ve only watched 1 lecture 😞 . I would also like to add, when I enrolled I was asked if I wanted to commence on the next intake which was 2 weeks away which I agreed to because I was given no reason not to. Once enrolled I then find out that if your course starts in less than 2 months then you cannot cancel the course. This was not made clear at the time of enrolment. I feel like I’ve been scammed and the company is just after people’s money .

The Health Coach lectures and course materials were engaging, well-presented and easy to follow. I enjoyed listening to the recorded lectures.
The College ensures safe practices and gives confidence. I appreciate their supportive staff and responsiveness.

I attended the Homeopathy for families workshop at CNM. I enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and helpful advice/handouts from the instructor regarding childhood illnesses. It’s great for a first introduction into homeopathy!

I attended a webinair with Cnm for more inlook into the college what there about and how they do there studies ect, I had previously emailed someone at the college about information regarding how the funding and payments work, there payment for the full nutrition course was £350 one off payment. £358 for 12th months then another £470 for a further 24months. When I asked about funding ect I was told there wasn't any, I replied stating the website has several options including loans with Lendwise.
I have had no reply yet however I made clear as private collage or not, it's clearly NOT inclusive or boasts to cater to everyone. This course is for people whom of certain class will be able to provide that kind of money.
Which in turn I find sad because holistic ways of life are suppsoed to be shared for everyone with equal rights. Frustratingly people like me on benefits with struggled with health will have to look at other alternatives.. I am disappointed. The course itself seemed fantastic. Its shame.

When I do become a holistic helath coach/practioner I will make sure its inclusive whatever I do.

Initially I wanted to enroll to their health coach course but after speaking to their sales team on the phone it put me right off and I had to go elsewhere. I was harassed with emails and calls for weeks and I was asked personal information like how much money I’ve got in my savings and what my husband earned and that I should spend all my savings on their course. It’s truly disappointing.

Excellent kinesiology course, thank you to Anja and the great teaching team!

They do not care about "extenuating circumstances" and need an allopathic doctor's certification to verify them, which is very odd considering that they use a naturopathic approach and conduct case studies, which they do not do with their own students. In addition to the course fees, the plan entails paying you thirty euros for each late assignment, which could add up to at least 180 euros a year.
Their policy is profit-driven and cold. I have been extremely stressed and anxious as a result of their behavior, and I am left wondering how a school could act so carelessly about its students' welfare.

Just completed two mini courses with the CNM - lovely content which was easy to follow and a great refresher as a nutrition coach!

Just wanted to add a few tips for upcoming Students and also a suggestion to CNM. First, this is a lot of very, very hard work and commitment. It's not a 2 day course - it's 3 years of intense learning, including Biomedicine and Biochemistry with 2 years of evidenced based Naturopathic Nutritional Therapy. Dig in, you may think you can't do it but you will surpass all of your expectations. It is worth it. Some of our Lecturers were at the top of their game - Dr. Marc Bubbs, Nicola Zanetti, Bobby Qureshi (Biomedicine), Rhian Jones and Jodie Cahill to name but a few. Network all you can while at college and consider what you will do when you leave - that's super important. Have a study group and stick together - again super important for exam study (in our years studying, 1 exam covered 1000 slides of theory!). Find clients for clinic practice and examination in advance or the last year will be super stressful. Finally CNM, it would be great if you could update the final Certificate of Qualification to reflect the intense study, the intense exams and clinical area exams, perhaps by splitting how the student did in each area, instead of just typing "Naturopathic Nutrition" on the certificate which doesn't reflect, at all, the level of achievement and was disheartening to receive after so much study, blood sweat and tears! All in, the Staff were very understanding (Karolina and Alison B)
(I have chronic health conditions) and I appreciated how good they were with any concerns I had. Finally, enjoy, network, network, network and look to your future while still at college.

A decision to leave the IT industry after 20 years and move into Health & nutrition was my biggest and best decision to date! I started with NEDL in 2018 when I was searching for support with my fertility issues, this sparked my interest in food as medicine and in 2020 when I was on maternity leave I left IT and signed up for two diploma's and studied Nutritional Therapy alongside the Health Coach diploma. And I now have a thriving business with flexibility around school hours and couldn't be happier to have made the jump! I found CNM to be a really supportive college and the lecturers were all brilliant.

Studying at CNM was one of the best decisions in my life. The thought of starting a second career after having my kids was daunting but from day 1 I felt very welcomed and I found my tribe of passionate folks who are advocating for optimal health.

I think the education is excellent. The Naturopathic Nutrition course gives you the opportunity to experience many hours in clinic - putting the academic training into practical experience.

I did my training with CNM 10 years ago and I've seen the college grow from strength to strength each year.

I truly cannot recommend studying with CNM enough. Beginning my Nutrition studies with CNM over 3 years ago was whole heartedly the best decision I could have ever have made. The quality of the lectures and the information was far superior to my previous degree, which really surprised me. I loved the clinical training and feel I have left CNM as a well rounded and confident practitioner! Thank you CNM :)
