Here's what our students like best:

My experience so far has been nothing short of amazing. Diving into the complexities of nutrition has proven to be a significant learning curve, filled with both challenges and revelations. There’s an overwhelming amount of information available today, and it can be daunting to determine where to start. However, I feel encouraged as I explore the various aspects of nutrition, from understanding macronutrients and micronutrients to learning about different dietary approaches and their impacts on health. Each new piece of information is helping me to gradually unravel the intricacies of nutrition, and I am excited to finally gain clarity in this vital area of my life, which will enable me to support my clients.

The group sessions remind me I am exactly in the field that I love – the community support is amazing, also from alumni. The study material feels current, and very open to explore more into different areas. Each module felt as though the instructors gave encouragement to continue learning.

Jessie, R.

The Course outlines provide a clear picture of what to expect, I LOVE the material, and the frequent webinars are great to feel a member of the community, as well as get some great information on my own questions, and questions I didn’t even know I needed the answer to!

This program has significantly addressed a multitude of inquiries I have regarding nutrition, providing valuable insights not only for my personal health but also for the well-being of those I hold dear. Furthermore, it has equipped me with essential knowledge I can apply in my massage therapy practice, particularly for clients facing various health challenges. The program is structured to emphasize ethical considerations, offer clear guidance, and deliver critical information that I look forward to incorporating into my practice. I extend my sincere gratitude to the staff at the 91ÖÆÆ¬³§ for their steadfast support and dedication throughout my educational journey. Their commitment to excellence in teaching has profoundly influenced my approach to nutrition and empowered me with the expertise necessary to effect positive change in others’ lives. Thank you to everyone at CSNN for your invaluable contributions to my professional development.

Mary, A.
May 2026

I like learning so many things that I didn’t know already! Plus I enjoy all of the content and instructors so far. Everything keeps me very engaged and I like the way that every course is a little bit different so that you’re not always doing the same things.

Shaundell, F.

I am really enjoying the content and the enthusiasm that everyone brings to the table. Everyone is more than willing to help you gain the most knowledge possible while really creating a great learning environment

Sarah, R.

The best thing that I like from my experience at CSNN is the knowledge and the information I am getting.

Grace, S.
April 2026

Best part of the CSNN program really comes down to how it bridges the gap between science and nature. What stands out most is the holistic approach, which teaches me that nutrition is about more than just counting calories; it’s about how food, emotions, and environment all work together to affect a person’s health. The program is excellent because it gives me practical tools to help people in the real world while still grounding everything in scientific research, like the PubMed articles I was studying now. This balance makes the program feel very complete because i get to learn both the “why” behind natural healing and the “how” of modern nutritional science.

Kamaxi, T.
April 2026

The amount of holistic nutritional information i’m learning. Also, the new language that i’ve adopted within the courses so far (Ex. within the case study reports). I find this program is a route to a healthier life! It’s not just about learning the educational material for a potential career in the future, but a transformative way of life towards optimal health.

Lisa, F.
April 2026

I have learned so much just in this first module that it makes me excited to complete the rest of the course. I enjoy the webinars where we can ask questions and the instructors have been very helpful! There is nothing I don’t like about this experience so far.

Nicole, V.

Everyone is helpful and the courses so far are fairly well designed for online courses.

Christine, C.

Marleigh, B.

Emily, P.

I loved the content overall, and I especially loved the holistic approach to this program. This Natural Nutrition diploma program has equipped me with the skills to be a successful practitioner and entrepreneur, something I have always felt called to.

Rebecca, M.
February 2026

What I liked best is how in depth, comprehensive, and truly informative the program is. It truly prepares you to help people in many ways, and in a level that I maybe was not expecting. I am grateful for all the knowledge and being able to apply it in real time, and in the future for myself and for others.

Julia, M.
February 2026

The course materials are thorough and easy to go back and reference for future use. Courses that have interactive questions and provide the answers after, are great for gauging which topics I am picking up on quickly and which topics I need to study more in depth. Assignments that weigh more than the test are great for showing that I understand and can apply the curriculum.

Brittany, D.
February 2026

I like the subject variety and how the subjects end up relating back to each other. It is rewarding to be able to draw connections between different concepts. I like that we get real experience with the case studies.

Mya, L.

Logan, W.
February 2026

Interesting material and the courses are challenging. The videos are well done and explain the material well. So far a good experience.

Sherrill, H.
February 2026

There are so many things that I like and appreciate about CSNN’s Natural Nutrition Program. One being, the timeline. I was able to put my schoolwork on hold for a couple years while I was busy raising my little children. I still continued to read and study nutrition, but I wasn’t pressed for time to complete my program. I could extend the program as many times as I needed. I love the arrangement of courses and the holistic approach of the program. I loved learning about the motivational interviewing for clients and the research side of the practice. I loved how the courses prepared me in all areas, not just nutritional knowledge. I loved the support that CSNN offered. Chelsea always promptly responded to my questions and concerns.

Andrea, A.
January 2026

My biggest takeaway so far is that there is so much kindness, support and genuine care in me doing well. Anytime I have reached out the correspondence has been timely and helpful. I appreciated all of the tools to get me started and help me become comfortable on the platform. I know there are many people I can reach out to for help and I don’t feel isolated, which is what I was a little bit worried about upon starting. I like that everything is broken down into lessons. I was particularly intimidated by the anatomy course but going through it, its broken down very nicely. I like that you approach the same information a few times (reading, lessons, quizzes). It helps me to learn and retain the information better. 

Kayla, P.
January 2026

The best attribute i that it is at my own pace. This takes the pressure off with my busy schedule.

Christopher, D.
January 2026

I have really enjoyed the Program thus far, I find it offers a good range of topics that are well rounded with a mix of science-based nutrition and physiology, as well as the spiritual and mental health component. I find it has been very easy to navigate and complete through self-study with easy to access course content and communication.  All the instructors seem very knowledgeable and are available when needed.

Favourite Course:
The Body-Mind-Spirit Course Part 1!  It is my favourite because it offers practical strategies and assessment techniques, recipes,  interesting information on inflammation, the microbiome, and mental health connection with nutrition and overall a great textbook that will be a good resource. 

Tania, W.
October 2025

I like how the information in our lessons is updated regularly to keep with current knowledge. I love that after each reading I do, I am even more interested in continuing my studies than I was before.

I have yet to encounter what I like least about my experience. I genuinely don’t have anything negative to say.

Megan, B

I really enjoy the flexibility of the self-study option. I have three kids and work still so being able to have that flexibility is amazing!

Shawna, S.

CSNN : the content is incredible, it reaffirms my decision to enrol in the program. Any interactions with the teachers have been super helpful and I’m excited about continuing on in the program.

Brittany, K.
September 2025

I like best about flexibility of the schedule to study. As a mother of two with a full-time job, this flexibility is very important to me.

Qing, W.
July, 2025

I could work at home on something I am passionate about. I have learned so much and want to keep continuing my education and open a business with my wealth of skills and knowledge. The webinars are so helpful and having zoom sessions. 

Lisa, W.
July, 2025

Although it was an online distance education program that I was enrolled in there was a lot of support through teachers and the administrative team. I could not have stayed on track with the timeline if I had not been supported with accountability through the administrative team. The Mind, Body and Spirit class was one of my favorites and Symptomatology.  There was also a good variety of courses that were more in depth and some that were not quite as intense, this made for a good balance. 

Kristin, R.
July, 2025

Of course, I love all the in-depth knowledge that has been provided, and that CSNN strives to update where necessary and constantly tweak and upgrade the program.Most of all, I love that I have been connected to the most beautiful beings that really care and really have the best interests of humanity. My highlight has been being connected to this community by the Facebook group, fellow students, and study groups that I have formed, and the biggest highlight has been taking part in the CSNN conference the last 3 years have connected me to new people, new opportunity and more and more knowledge. I am thankful this program exists and can’t speak highly enough about it so thank you to all for what you do and continue to do.

I loved the Pediatrics course because having children myself I found it a wealth of knowledge on how to help my own family, and I think it’s foundational to start children off with the best nutrition from the get go and establishing health habits and variety of foods right away to set the foundation for life long health.

Jaymee, W.
July, 2025

I like all of the courses and feel like a lot of things are covered to help us in our future practices. I think the workload is reasonable overall as some of the first courses are more intensive but then there are some much lighter courses later on I love all of the additional webinars about tech and setting up our businesses. I also like the mentorship hours. Most of the instructors are very responsive and helpful. I most enjoy the courses that have video lectures included with some small quizzes and other ways of retaining the information. I really enjoy doing the case studies and the learning from completing them is invaluable. 

My favourite was hormone health mostly just because I found it so interesting. It’s a really complex topic but it was broken down into really manageable lessons and Keyrsten always includes great lectures in her courses. I find the courses that have lessons, video lectures and quizzes give the most value and greatest learning. I also really liked the text book for the course.

Louise, H.
July, 2025

I like the ability to take this course online to suit my work / home situation. I’ve enjoyed the content, and although I have always been passionate about the covered material, I learned much more than I anticipated. The CSNN educators are very helpful.

Shauna, D.
July, 2025

I loved the wide array of topics and courses that I didn’t initially expect to be included within the program. I really loved the addition of video lectures in some of the updated courses that were very helpful in supplementing the material. I liked the style of ‘open book’ assessments as a way of understanding how to find the information when needed. 

Taylor, M.
July, 2025

I love the attitude of the teachers towards students, I feel very welcome and appreciated! The contents of the courses is very detailed, lots of information available to do further research if interested.

Snezhana, B.
June, 2025

I like the structure of the lessons, the way everything is explained. I love the competence, the positive attitude and all the guidelines we receive from the academic advisors. I love the Mentorship hours as well. They help me to enhance my understanding on the topics and gives me also confidence moving forward with the study. THANK YOU ALL! 🙂

Anita, T.

I am able to do school and work at the same time. The books, lessons, and lectures are very informative but easy to understand. 

India, G.
May, 2025

I have been enrolled in online my pace and I found thing were constructed in a very well manner. The study is vast and the course step by step made easy for the students to study. Even with a busy daily schedule I could fit in and carry on with my studies. The best part of the CSNN’s Natural Nutrition Program has opened my eyes to a whole new world of food and its value in our daily life to improve our health as well as our mental health!

My favorite course was Body Mind Spirit (mental health). As in modern lifestyle with loads of stress it is very important to deal with mental health. Stress can contribute to different organ dysfunction in our body including dysbiosis and adrenal insufficiency.  I learned how to handle stress with meditation and nutrients as well as lifestyle changes.

Jasmin, N.
May, 2025

Everyone at CSNN seems available and ready to help you if you have any questions or concerns. Most instructors were great and responsive as well. I am overall very happy with the program!

Favourite Course: Symptomatology because I feel like I learned the most from this course and a lot of the information stuck with me. I also enjoyed Pediatrics.  

Autumn, D.
May, 2025

I have absolutely loved my experience with the Natural Nutrition Program at CSNN! As someone who has always been passionate about health, learning in this program has been incredibly enjoyable. Being an adult student, I have a much greater appreciation for my studies compared to when I was younger, and I truly looked forward to sitting down and engaging with the course material. The structure of the classes, with well-presented information and quizzes, has made learning both accessible and effective. The instructors have been responsive, helpful, and kind, always providing support in a timely manner. Additionally, my interactions with the administrative team, including when I called in for payment assistance, have been nothing but positive—everyone I’ve spoken to has been kind and accommodating. Overall, I am extremely happy with my experience at CSNN and the Natural Nutrition Program. I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in deepening their knowledge of holistic health and nutrition!

Favourite Course: Nutritional Symptomatology

Diane, D.
March 2025

I love that the course material is very straightforward and provides so much information. I feel like it is all very clear, challenging but clear.  I also like the tests are tricky, they just test the knowledge that you have available and the questions don’t try to tick you.  I always hated that about most school tests.

Rachel, M.
March, 2025

I loved that it was based mostly on my own schedule.  The formats were great and the information with in the course. I enjoyed how it was broken down into sections (allergies, Hormones and so on) It gives information on each topic to better understand. The staff are AMAZING!! They go above and beyond to help you and answer any questions. All instructors were fast to respond when I had questions. Christine was also amazing for helping me stay on track with the program after I applied for an extension, her support is what kept me motivated.  I am over all very pleased with the program., It is also great that there are options for students who needed some extra support or an extension because life happens. I feel confident in what I have learned and can’t wait to be an RHN!!!

Stacey, M.
March 2025

Online school can be difficult but I feel that CSNN does a very good job at making it clear what their expectations are and how we can go about accomplishing each course. What I really enjoy is additional lecture videos and explanatory videos that we have access too in addition to our lessons and tests. 

I think CSNN has offered online schooling as best as possible.

Mica, H.

I am learning so much in each course. Every course is very thorough with knowledge. The assignments and test challenge me but I move on from every course knowing way more than I started.

Sierra, T.
December 2024

I have truly cherished this entire journey—the highs, the lows, and the challenges of working through the case studies. The moments when I doubted I could persevere, along with my setbacks, have all been invaluable learning experiences. I am deeply grateful for the instructors and the incredible support system that helped me navigate it all. Thank you for this incredible journey!!!
