Foundation Courses
The perfect starting point for your nutrition education. Build a solid understanding of nutritional science and naturopathic principles.
Your Starting Point
Foundation courses are designed for those new to nutrition education. Whether you're exploring nutrition for personal interest, considering a career change, or want to test the waters before committing to a longer programme, this is where to begin.
Our foundation course covers the essential science - nutrients, cellular function, food composition - while introducing the naturopathic principles that make the Plaskett approach distinctive.
Even at foundation level, you get full access to Nutriluma - our personal learning platform. Photograph your meals, track 50+ nutrients, and learn with a 24/7 built-in tutor. It's the perfect way to experience the Plaskett approach before committing to further study.
