Thank you, I found your video helpful! I didn't plan on becoming a coach. Plus, at my age. But, as I was diagnosed with a health issue, due to my obesity, I had to come up with a program for myself. Tried many programs, and always failed. I have found, discovered my own program, that works 100%. I really want to share what I've discovered, and I'm extremely excited about my discovery. Plus, I'm 61 years old, I couldn't believe I loss over 40 lb. I don't have the first clue about becoming a coach, could use all the feedback possible. I feel better, have more energy, then I have had, in the last 20 years. What I discovered isn't like any program out there. Really feel like I found the key to weight loss.
I’ve taken ACE, PN and NASM nutrition programs. NASMs course is by far the best. It’s the most comprehensive and they provide the best study materials with engaging content and videos. Written and peer-reviewed by over 20 experts (PhDs, RDs).
Hey, I like to know more about your experience, I am just overwhelmed by all the information and who is being paid for sayin what, smh. My road is rather personal, in dealing with diabetes in the family and loss, and now my 12 year old daugher diagnosed with Inflammatory Bowel Disease, so I am looking for a Certfied Nutrition program where I can work with those with chronic conditions, and I do see NCI has program in regards to Gut Health, wish it was combined with Fitness Component too.
@@brandywilliams575 I'm sorry to hear about your struggles. These sorts of conditions are beyond the scope of a nutrition coach and should be reserved for a registered dietitian, certified diabetes educator (CDE), or physician. There's a lot at play with diabetes and IBD. All three programs (ACE, PN, NASM) will touch on these issues and provide general guidelines for healthy eating and how to monitor and evaluate daily eating habits. But getting down into the nitty-gritty, such as writing specific meal plans, identifying flare-ups and how to manage them, monitoring blood glucose and medications can only be done by a state-licensed health professional. You'll learn a lot about the science and application of nutrition in these programs, but diagnosing disease and managing the disease from a nutrition medical standpoint is not discussed in any of them. A licensed professional knowledgeable about endocrinology is needed.
@@BS-by5nw Totally agree, it is more of just providing the right nutrition for her and for myself. I have a BS in Community Health Education and minor in Kinesiology, and would like to be certified as a Nutrionist just to help those in my neighborhood who know nothing preparing good, what exactly to eat and avoid, etc. My child has her doctor, but I just need to understand eating healthy more for my family as a whole.
Thank you Laura for your video it was really helpful. I’m right now doing my research to choose the best fit for me ! So far NASM is my option #1 but definitely I will have to check at NCI now 😅 I haven’t heard about it before. Besides to get the knowledge about it I want a certificate that teach me how to build my own coaching business, do you think NCI is better in that aspect than NASM? Also I want to take the CPT certification, would you recommend me NASM as well? I’d like to choose an association with the best reputation on this field. Thanks in advance !!!
Thank you so much for taking the time to do and post this video. I, also, listen to Mind Pump and that how I heard about NCI and I also tried to find information including price and couldn't find anything so you answered a lot of my questions, I am going to get in contact with an NCI rep to get more information. Thank you so much for this, it was an immense help!!!!!
I have never heard of NCI. I went to IIN. I just posted a video about my experience there. After I graduated from IIN I found PHI..primal health coach institute and wondered if I should have went there. All in all tho…IIN was rewarding.
Thanks for making this video! It’s exactly what I needed as I consider NCI for my nutrition coaching certification. After hearing your experience and feedback, they’ll definitely be my choice!
Great video Laura. I listened to the most recent Mind Pump episode with Jason Phillips, and it's how I stumbled across your channel while looking for more info. Booking in my call today.
I took IIN and it was a very expensive mistake. I don’t feel ready to do the coaching side and overwhelmed because I want to help myself and my family. Hopefully NCI have a sale to help with the prize.
HOOOLLLYY SHIT!!! I watched this video shortly before getting on a call with Frankie for NCI in September, 2021. Even after we met in AZ at SMTF, I had no idea until NOW that YOU were the one that made this video!! Small world, I love it!
Ahhh thank you! So glad I found this review ...legit was about to sign up for iin & then boom a reddit comment came up *thank goodness for technology stalking your every move lol ...the reddit comments also steered me away. I thought I did enough research but glad I'm continuing to look into other options more
YAY! I'm so glad I could help out! Hahaha yeah this is definitely one of those times when technology and the internet stalking you really pays off! Best of luck!!
Thanks so much! Jason has been nothing short of phenomenal. I've learned an insane amount from him and his team and hope to thank them all in person one of these days. Hope you're doing well! 💜
Hi Laura, Thanks for this review. I want to ask, Do you recommend NCI for someone who’s a beginner and has little knowledge about Nutrition? I saw that the NCI Level 1 program is just a 2-days course. I’m not sure if I can learn and start coaching after that 2-day course. Is it possible? Or they only offer it for people who’re working with clients already? Really don’t know how the program will run. Thanks😊
Hi Arvin! They approach nutrition in a really easy-to-understand way and the nice thing is that they require you to work with two guinea pig clients in order to receive your certification. They've got weekly calls for people going through the course where you can ask questions and the community is super responsive. So if there's a concept you're struggling with you'll be able to get an answer fairly quickly. While it's only a 2 day course, it's really a 3 month long process since you actually have to coach two people. Hope this helps and let me know if you have any other questions!
So I still get a support from them until I finish working with the clients and get my certification. Now I understand. Maybe I’ll try to contact them. Thanks for the response. Really appreciate😇
@@BalancingLaura Hi Laura, curious..have you also joined the coaching mastery? when talking with the sales rep on the phone he mentioned the coaching mastery..sounds interesting..curious about your thoughts. thanks again
Hey Laura, great video. I came acros your video because I am also looking for nutrition certification and this has been of great help. NCI sounds like a great option. Do you think I will be eligible to do this course? I am in africa and I am not even a English native speaker ( Spainsh is my native language) but guess my English is not that bad. I know I can afford the course but not sure if this is just for U.S citizens. Any idea? Thanks.
Thanks so much for the feedback! I know that there are people from all over the world who have done the NCI certification and you should definitely go for it! Also your English is really good from what I've seen so far! And best part is that the Facebook community is SUPER helpful, so if you had any questions about the content they'd be answered pretty quickly!
Hye everybody, please I need some advice I'm living in morocco and I'm looking for a qualitative online courses on nutrition and dietetics. Can you give me an idea about the price of the courses in NCI and is the programme totally online even the exams?
While I don't have a dedicated video planned for this, I'm probably going to talk about it in a vlog at some point soon! But I'll keep this in mind for sure!
I just finished the ISSA nutrition certificate and I did not like it. It doesn't give any pratical scenario and how to apply what you learned. I feel lost.
Exactly! It’s a bunch of History and Unnecessary information that we more than likely won’t need. Less of the practical and Nutrition building scenarios. They need to re-evaluate the program. The Personal Training Cert was actually great with ISSA
@@boostaman051 yes! It seems they just put anything together just to add to a bundle and try to convince people that it's a very good deal. It's not! It brings no value at all
Hi Laura, I signed up but turns out they double charged me and they have been unresponsive yet. They don’t respond to any of my mails, messages nothing. It’s a lot of money so I probably have to get my bank involved for a dispute. Is this a common issue with NCI ?
Hi there! WOW that's terrible - I've never heard of that happening before. Send me an email (lauraroberts414@gmail.com) with your name and I'll see if I can get in touch with some people to help get this resolved.
@@BalancingLaura they actually called me today and Jason also responded. Not sure what happened but they apologized to me and said this normally doesn’t happen. I’ll be sending you en email anyways just so you have it in the records and if I ever have questions maybe i can reach out directly to you as well about the program if that’s ok :)
Great video, thanks. I'm currently getting cert for PT through NASM, but looking into nutrition coach as additional supplement as it seems most need additional cert for additional $. Do you recommend that I take NCI concurrently or is it best to wait until after PT cert? Thanks again.
I thought it was great. A lot more information goes into learning to be a CPT than I expected. But NASM provides good detail and a good model to help with implementing in practice. Axiom on youtube uses their platform successfully & offers advice to help pass the test. It's one of the top certs accepted in the industry. @@max12244
Have been trying to find more about the cost of level 1... no luck! Got a call with one of their sales rep this weekend. Doing this for both finding out what the heck I do wrong and guide other men's to be in better shape (cherry on top would be to become location independent) Thanks for the video
Totally understand! I get nothing from NCI for making this video - I really just wanted to share my experience. I've been really impressed with them and wanted other people to know about them!
U started off sounding candid and relatable and everything You had my complete trust but lost it when you started sounding very very salesy and scripted… Im going with nasm simply because I already have familiarity with them from their PT cert
Hi Laura. thank you for making this video, It was helpful. One question I have is NCI an American program? I'm a Canadian and want a Canadian program/certification.
Hey Felicia! So glad I could help! NCI is in the US and I believe it's open to anyone internationally. But it's not a Canadian program so I'll be really curious to hear what you end up choosing!
First off thank you for making the video. Have you found any other nutrition certs with the level of application that Jason puts in the curriculum? Have you found anyone else in the game that reminds you of Jason Phillips? His articulation of concepts and ability to introduce that applicable carryover is something I have yet to find in someone else.
Really glad you enjoyed the video! Honestly, Jason Phillips is the real deal and I haven't come across anyone else who focuses so much on application. Travis Zipper, who handles most of the science and educational pieces in the NCI certifications, is a fantastic counterpart to Jason. He also explains things in an easily digestible way and provides continued learning opportunities. I'll be sure to let you know if I discover anyone who presents information at their level!
@@BalancingLaura Once you have purchased either level one or two do you get lifetime access to updated content to the cert. and an academy of sorts with resources, etc.?
