Canadian School of Natural Nutrition - Gatineau

The CSNN program I completed this spring was exactly what I was searching for and needed. As a full time yoga instructor for many years, I was already working in a professional capacity within the holistic wellness field. Now, after completing the program, right from the comfort of my own home, I have acquired the Registered Holistic Nutrition (RHN) designation and have started a new business offering wellness + nutrition coaching to clients here in Ottawa and beyond. I already have clients and I am so excited to grow my business. The program was accessible, affordable and so incredibly informative. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat!

Highly recommend CSNN if you are looking to learn all there is to learn about healthy living and holistic nutrition from some of the best teachers around. Every single teacher is remarkably knowledgeable in their sector. Very patient and kind, and every staff member at CSNN goes above and beyond their call of duty.

I started my second career education at CSNN Ottawa when I needed to understand my own health situation. Early on in my own health scare did I realize that nutrition + lifestyle were holding the answers I needed to support my body getting well again. I studied part time in the evenings and always looked forward to class. The knowledge that is taught at CSNN is valuable for everyone who wants to stay healthy and in fact should be mainstream education. I had a great experience at that school, which has dedicated teachers who want to make a difference in the world. The school emits a positive energy and is very welcoming.

Almost a year ago, I began the first step towards embarking on a new career, and any hesitation I had at the time was quickly put to rest when I began taking classes at the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition. I have learned so much as a student at CSNN, and met so many great people along the way. From the instructors who were so knowledgeable and helpful to the administration who was always there and always supportive, and to program that is rich and thorough in content, and the classmates..I can say with all confidence that I’m almost graduate, ready to embark on a new career, and one that the CSNN program has equipped me for even better than I had imagined.Thank You CSNN!!

The Holistic Nutrition Program at CSNN will allow you to build a diverse career in the world of holistic nutrition. You can build a nutrition consulting practice to help improve client health problems, teach nutritional health courses or programs, work in or with public health agencies and/or with alternative health practitioners. The career options are numerous and diverse. Even if you are not interested in private practice, the CSNN program will provide you with the knowledge to help improve your health and that of your family. Specifically, about the CSNN Gatineau program is that you will receive huge support not only from the highly dedicated and knowledgeable professors but also unprecedented support from both the Manager and Assistant Manager as they too are deeply committed and responsive in helping you succeed. What’s exemplary is that the profs and administrative staff all have credentials in nutritional health and/or the programs courses of study.

I started my journey with CSNN several years ago but in the Distance Program, I am a mom of 4 kids and I struggled with making time" for a program that is designed to work "at your own pace". So

My experience at CSNN Ottawa was an incredible one. I switched branches about halfway through the program, switching to CSNN Ottawa from Distance Learning. Natalie and Nicole (Branch Manager and Assistant Branch Manager) were both so accommodating to me, and went out of their way to adjust my new schedule, get me into the remaining classes needed, and were always there to answer my questions.Being in a live, virtual classroom setting was incredible, as I got to learn and discuss with my peers. All the educators at CSNN Ottawa are so kind and shared so much of their valuable knowledge. They were always open to diving deeper and answered all of my questions.I not only gained so much valuable knowledge coming out of this program, but also gained so much confidence in myself and the type of Practitioner I want to be. I am grateful for CSNN and the incredible people that are part of this program, and the friends I made throughout. I am so excited to now be able to educate and guide clients in their health journeys!

I attended CSNN Sept 2020-August 2021 when the school was going through some major shifts to online learning. The entire year program, I felt supported by the teachers and administration staff, enjoyed the courses and bonded well with my classmates. The lack of commute helped me with the work/life balance. The classes were very interesting and the teachers brought lots of knowledge from all different walks of life to really get a holistic approach to nutrition. If anyone is considering being a Holistic Nutritionist, there is only one place to look: CSNN.

I made the decision to go back to school last year during a long covid lockdown, while being home with my two young children, and I am so glad I chose the holistic nutrition program at CSNN both as a means to learn how to optimize the health and well-being of my family and myself, and to share my passion for nutrition and wellness with others. I feel that I have learned a wealth of practical and fascinating knowledge from the program's curriculum, thanks to the incredibly brilliant educators on staff. The brand manager Natalie Rivier leads by example, sharing her passion for teaching holistic nutrition, is incredibly supportive and inspirational. The teaching and administrative staff are equally knowledgable and committed to the students, making sure they have the best experience possible. The school's workshops are also something I highly recommend, they are informative and fun to participate in! I also had no idea that attending a virtual program would fit so well into my hectic mom-life schedule, and that I would make so many new friends over the year! I would highly recommend this school and the Natural Nutrition diploma program to anyone who is interested in a fulfilling career in the wellness industry or to anyone who is in pursuit of a healthier lifestyle.

I highly recommend CSNN to anyone looking for further education on holistic nutrition. The teachers were professional, educated and knowlegeable people. CSNN offers an in-depth program in holistic nutrition. It prides itself on research-driven information to make our point in a society that does not always want to hear about how food choices can affect one's physical and emotional well-being. The courses cover a variety of topics from biology & chemistry to vitamins & minerals to sustainable farming practices & sports. With this kind of variety offered (including a business course), you will definitely figure out your niche in the growing natural nutrition world.
