Become an Accredited Sports Nutritionist

The Holistic Performance Institute is proud to announce our partnership with The Sports Nutrition Association, a global provider of registration for qualified, credible sports nutrition practitioners.

Graduates of our Holistic & Performance Nutrition Coach program (sports nutritionist) will be eligible to apply for registration with the SNA at no additional cost. ​

​Why become accredited?

​Sports Nutrition is relatively unregulated, and the quality of practitioners can vary considerably. Accreditation provides your clients with the assurance that you are credible and qualified and can set you apart from unqualified practitioners. The Sports Nutrition Association also provides insurance for sports nutrition practitioners as part of its registration and ensures the highest quality of standards are applied in sports nutrition practice.
​
Before the establishment of the Sports Nutrition Association, there was no universal standard for ‘best-practice’ in sports and performance nutrition. Accreditation ensures that sports nutrition professionals have both ethical and practical guidelines to follow to ensure the continued prosperity and success of the profession.

Why have we aligned with the Sports Nutrition Association?

​The mandate of the SNA is to ‘Ensure the sustainable prosperity of the Sports Nutrition profession.’ This is a vision we share, and we believe that the opportunity for accreditation and insurance through a legitimate, respected global body provides a valuable addition to our current offering.

Who are the Sports Nutrition Association?

Why study with HPI?

By qualifying with the Holistic Performance Institute*, you are eligible to register with the Sports Nutrition Association and your registration is recognised in every country that the global body is established in, providing an internationally transferable seal of approval.

But not only that, HPN1 will prepare you for a career in performance nutrition by teaching you the science and application of performance nutrition AND the fundamentals of nutrition coaching and behaviour change.

But, if your focus is on health or clinical nutrition, our ‘Health Coaching Track’ will teach you in-depth concepts of health and nutrition coaching, and both HPN1 ‘tracks’ lead on to our Clinical Nutrition training, the Certified Holistic & Performance Nutritionist program.
