BCNH Accreditations

Credit-rating by the University of Greenwich

We have a strong working relationship with the University of Greenwich, which has credit-rated our nutritional therapy Diploma modules at levels 4, 5 or 6 since 2005. 

The University acts as an external quality control, overseeing all aspects of BCNH modules from module content, to teaching and learning strategies and assessment methods.  This means that our students can be confident that they are receiving a high-quality education.

Our new Diploma in Nutrition & Lifestyle Medicine includes all the excellent content from our old nutritional therapy Diploma, reorganised into new modules.  At the time of writing, the new modules have been submitted to the University for credit-rating and are awaiting approval.

The BCNH Diploma in Nutrition & Lifestyle Medicine is accredited by the Nutritional Therapy Education Commission (NTEC), allowing our graduates to apply for fast-track entry to the professional register held by the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC) which is supported by the Department of Health.

NTEC is the Professional Standards Council for Nutritional Therapy. NTEC’s mission is to establish, uphold and advance the standards of qualifications, competence and conduct of those who practise nutritional therapy as a profession.

CNHC Registration

BCNH Diploma in Nutrition & Lifestyle Medicine graduates are eligible to apply for fast-track entry to the professional register held by the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC).

CNHC was established with government support to regulate various complementary therapies, including Nutritional Therapy.

The key purpose of the CNHC is to protect the public.

The Department of Health has recommended that, where the CNHC registers the complementary therapy in question, members of the public should consult with someone who is CNHC registered.
