Global Integrative Medicine Academy (GIMA)

The Global Integrative Medicine Academy was created to satisfy a need, expressed by many health professionals, to establish credentials as experts in Nutritional Medicine. But, health professionals also needed to be able to complete the programme with a minimum impact on their career, family, and lifestyle. That is why the Advanced Nutritional Medicine and Sports Nutrition Certification Program was created.

This Fast-Track program allows the health professional to become Registered Nutritional Consultant Practitioners without having to take time off from their busy careers to take what would traditionally require two years of full-time study at a recognized institution. This is because the International Organization of Nutrition Practitioners (IONC) has given the Advanced Nutritional Medicine and Sports Nutrition Specialist a 1,000-hour credit that recognizes the academic achievements of health professionals. On completion of the program, graduates qualify to become a registered Nutritional Consulting Practitioner (RNCP) and receive a registration number from the IONC.

Mission:
The GIMA mission is to provide a go-to resource where busy health professionals can find evidence-based expertise in nutrition. A Nutritional Certification that qualifies graduates to become Registered Nutritional Consultant Practitioners (RNCP) allowing busy health professionals to achieve the credibility that comes with the RNCP credentials is the bedrock on which GIMA is built With over 120 hours of online multimedia lessons averaging 30 minutes lengths health professionals can easily access the lessons anytime, anywhere on any device. A busy health professional can complete the course with a minimum impact on the career, family, and lifestyle. There is no time limit to completing the program, allowing you to finish the program as fast you are able to are at the pace of your choosing.
