What are the best schools to pursue a career as a CCN or Naturopath/Holistic practitioner?

April 11, 2014

Question

Which schools do you recommend (with good reputation) to pursue a CCN or naturopath/holistic practitioner career/certification?

Answer

For information on the certified clinical nutritionist (CCN) credential, check with www.CNCB.org (website of the Clinical Nutrition Certification Board) to determine their current requirements which must be met prior to taking the certification exam. The requirements and logistics of earning a naturopathic credential are much more complex than that of a CCN. First I would recommend that you read my article below on naturopathy:
http://www.naturopath4you.com/PDFs/Naturopathy%202009%20final.pdf
Other considerations that affect one’s choice of a naturopathic credential include the state of the practice within the U.S, current laws and regulations within that state as well as choosing a solo practice or working under another practitioner.
