Institute for Integrative Nutrition Bewertungen 1.807

I feel the content of the program overall was good but at the end of the course it gets pretty repetitive and I wasn't happy with the website they set us up with at all. I would recommend this course to others I just hope they make these small modifications in the near future to improve it.

Great, thorough program with loads of information!

I did the 6 month program at IIN and really committed to it, completing all talks, assignments, discussions, tests and coaching circles. Because it's a self-guided program it does require a high degree of self-discipline and motivation but those who stick with it will emerge with a great and actionable understanding of how to coach clients, the basics of business building and marketing and new ways of thinking about health/wellness/nutrition.

It's important to note a bit about my background and what I was seeking from the program as a way to frame up this review. I have a strong background in marketing and business so I felt the marketing/business/finance aspects were less relevant for me but a wonderful addition for those who need that foundation. I also already run my own healing practice and was participating in this program mainly as a way to deepen my knowledge around health/wellness/nutrition so that I can offer clients more holistic guidance. For this purpose I found the coaching skills and health/wellness talks inspiring and helpful additions to my existing knowledge base.

Overall, I enjoyed the IIN program and felt compelled and excited to sign in each week and learn. There is a stellar range of speakers and topics which is one of the highlights of the program. There are a lot of diverse perspectives that opened my eyes and inspired me to explore fields I would not have been otherwise privy to. The school also provides abundant toolkits and frameworks for students to utilize and helps students actualize the program into a career which is another highlight. For someone hungry and able to put in the work to begin a career in health coaching, IIN is a great place to start.

However there were three drawbacks from my perspective.

The first being the lack of support once you're enrolled. IIN spends a lot of time and money recruiting students but not a lot of time answering questions along the educational journey. If you're looking for something that feels personalized and supports questioning and digging deeper, this is not that program.

Second, roughly half of the talks and content are dated (5-10+ years old). While the concepts are still relevant the supporting evidence and perspectives have often shifted and/or taken on important new richness in recent years. If you want the most recent findings, perspectives and understandings on a lot of this stuff you'll need to do the digging yourself to fill in the gaps. IIN also refuses to provide dates for the lectures which doesn't make it easier to figure out where to start. I found this lack of transparency to be rather shady.

Third, there are a fair number of talks given by the education department in each module and I often found these lacking in inspiration and engagement. I'd say they make up roughly a fourth of the overall content and while they're not a deal breaker they do make it challenging to pay attention when you're in a self-guided online course.

At the end of the day, I'm glad I did the 6 month program. It helped expand my body of wisdom and inspired me to explore other fields of study like functional medicine. It's a great way to gain exposure to the many different areas of health/wellness, to build your coaching skills and to gain a better understanding of how to build and run your own practice. It's an interesting course of study and most importantly, it's actionable.

Awesome experience since day 1!!! I have a better understanding of what is to be healthy and wellbeing. Today I'm 10 pounds less, happier, stronger and so into helping others.

Joining IIN was the best thing that happened to me. Aside from finding exactly what I was looking for in terms of program description, I could not but find how much beyond that it went.
This program, is not only well developed in terms of content, but also in terms of teaching methods as it gives hands on implementation and variety of learning methods to meet every learning style. I know this from my background as a teacher.
It is also extremely interesting, how equipped this program allows any health coach to be, whether with the material, or additional learning and the implementation.
This program definitely created an impact on me, which I will surely be able to pass on to others.
So happy to have made that choice of joining IIN.

I was happy with the coursework and learned a lot about many different things. The communication from IIN was clear and timely and the few times I had questions, they replied quickly and completely. I am pleased to be able to say I hold an IIN certification

I signed up for IIN because I needed to make a serious change in my life. My passion has always been to look and feel my best no matter what I was going through in life.
IIN has taught me so much about Primary Food and the affects it has on our health. Before IIN, I thought I knew how to be positive and towards the middle of IIN, I realized where the disconnect was. My subconscious was pushing and pulling me away from my true desires in life. Once, I started working on my subconscious and bringing it all to the surface, dealing with it one at a time. My world started to shift in a magnificent way.
Thank you IIN, for all the knowledge and inspiration you have taught me. I am so excited for the launch of my website Healthmindandbody which I decided to focus on helping the people pleasers of the world say “NO” without guilt. I work very closely with my clients using the tools from IIN to help my clients work through their subconscious mind. Once this is accomplished the universe opens for them and their struggles no longer exist.
Again, thank you IIN for giving me the strength and knowledge to set clear intentions for myself and my clients. I wouldn’t be able to accomplish all I am doing without the knowledge and tools IIN has taught me. I am so excited to create the ripple affect of IIN in the world!!

I had an amazing experience at IIN and I would recommend this institution to anyone seeking knowledge about nutrition, spirituality and balance!

When I signed up for IIN I was far from where I am today. This school transformed me, totally. I am all hyped up now because I am about to start my mission to transform others in a similar manner. I love IIN and I am honored to be apart of this life changing Institution.

~Satisfied IIN Student

I was already a life coach with multiple certifications when I enrolled in this program, and had the beginnings of a website already up and going.(so I was not interested in the "free website" sample you get charged for after you get it all started. I already knew something like that CAN NOT BE FREE FOREVER! Think about it...)
Instead, I was looking to gain more strategy about using my coaching experience integrating with health coaching, and engaging with new clients, which is what I got. The certification was important to me, as is the fact that several nutrition colleges accept this course as credits for ongoing education.
PRO: 1. great video training on many health-related topics. Lots of experts shared on a huge variety of topics.(some out-dated videos, but I felt like the content was still relevant). Digital learning is of course pre-recorded to maximize our access to so many renowned experts.
2. Did a good job of showing how to pull multiple aspects of a business all together, and where the boundaries are between "counseling" and "health coaching".
3.Great perspectives on how to start at this most basic level finding a specialization. I appreciated the "birds-eye view" perspective they gave about putting it all together.(what I was looking for)
4.The content format was easy to use, and motivating to continue/ complete. (some technical glitches along the way, but these were remedied every time within 24 hors)
5. I had response from the student support services/ coach within 24 hours every time I contacted them

CON's : 1. If you need help with marketing, you'll have to pay a significantly larger amount to a marketing expert, and even more to a web designer. IIN gets you started, and heads you down the path, but you will not have a full-on marketing plan without investing more time/research. (I already had, and this is an area I will have to continue to invest in)
2. I am an independent life-long learner, and have taken college level courses online for years, so the "no interaction" with other students, and/or instructors did not bother me. But be aware: this is not as in-depth/technical as a regular college level course. It is much broader and a great overview, so consider what you need, personally. If you require interaction and dialogue to learn, this might not be the format for you.
3. I, like some other reviewers did not align with the common political views expressed in the 2nd half of the program. (Or religion for that matter, but I also found it helpful to be educated better in what the basis of different beliefs are.) Beware: if you are uncomfortable having your views challenged, without an opportunity to debate or express your opinion, this might not be the environment for you.
FINAL NOTE: There are more expensive programs out there, and cheaper ones, too. I've done several others, and this one is mid-range, and a good "overview", so check your needs vs. options and be smart about that match-up. Overall I am happy with what I got for the price, and how it met the specific needs I have.

amazing program, very well set, quality of courses excellent.
Talks very worth it
Joshua is very charismatic
Very glad to be part of the IIN family

Being an IIN student was my goal for 4 years before I could do it. I feel fulfilled and happy after my graduation, and I also feel blessed for the opportunity. Highly recommend.

The training is amazing and eye-opening. Easy to follow. Great support and awesome community. I am so glad I took the course

Absolutely wonderful and comprehensive Health Coaching Certification program. I highly recommend it!

The Institute and the entire IIN community have enhanced my relationship to my own health, my development as a health professional and my role as a human on planet Earth in these crazy times. The coaching program was a steady stream of inspiration, resource and support - and my gratitude continues to flow!

I thoroughly enjoyed my health coaching course at IIN. They have really thought through the learning journey & also different learning styles and provide a great mix of video and written content and exercises to guide you through the content. They also mix up content which I find really useful as it helps you to assimilate the information in relatively digestible chunks. The experts views were all really interesting. My only complaint as a Brit is that the course is very American focused and while nods to international thinking, I do believe would do well to incorporate some international speakers as well.

Enjoyed every moment of my education in IIN. I feel so informed and awakened about supporting my health, my loved ones and my clients.
I feel so lucky to be able to have new healthy habits that I can go on through my life and got rid of dieting cycle and psychology.Many thanks to IIN team.

IIN is offering an amazing journey to me. My life has been changing in the positive way according to the progress of the course. Its excellent contents make me find new angles to see my life and others.

IIN is the seed you want to plant in your life’s garden. You water what’s great and prune what’s not and It’s all about living life in full bloom from there on.

Loved the experience
I learned so much at IIN! It transformed me entirely.. it taught me to respect bio-individuality and to be a better listener. My experience with IIN took me to another level and strengthened my skills in connecting with anyone on the subjects of primary and secondary foods.. I wouldn’t have been who I am today without this course.. it’s highly recommended, and is not bias towards a specific nutritional trend. It’s simple, to the point, and uses an extremely user friendly platform! It’s been a privilege to be an IIN student...
