Teaching And Assessment Methods
Every month a printed module (book) of about 70 pages will be mailed to you by post. This is your core study information which you should read carefully and make notes about anything you do not understand.
At the end of the module book you will find a number of questions. These are your monthly assignment and are designed to test your comprehension of the subjects in question and to help you practise finding the information that you will need when working as a naturopathic nutritionist.
Much of your time will be spent working on the answers to these questions, which should be carefully prepared in advance and then submitted online.
The internet links mentioned in the module book will be shown in the Student Resources section of our website. There you will also find links to short videos, and a reading list of books.
Each module of the course has a dedicated student online forum where you can ask questions and join in discussions relating to the topics covered by the module.
