CCNH students and graduates are encouraged to participate in professional organizations that nurture and serve natural health practitioners. Some of these associations offer professional certifications, while others promote natural health or work toward supporting health freedom of choice.
Student Memberships
In keeping with our commitment to professionalism, CCNH provides students the opportunity to begin professional networking through student memberships in the American Herbalists Guild, the International Iridology Practitioners Association, and the National Association of Nutrition Professionals. Students enrolled in the herbology and iridology certificate programs as well as the MS in holistic nutrition programs are encouraged to take advantage of these opportunities.
Professional Certification Opportunities
Clayton College programs provide graduates with the eligibility to seek certification or other professional credentials from a number of national organizations.
The American Naturopathic Certification Board offers two recognized designations after the successful completion of board examinations:
- CTN®: Graduates of the MS in natural health program and graduates of the CCNH EdD program are eligible to become board certified as traditional naturopaths.
- CNW®: Graduates of the MS in holistic nutrition program are eligible to become board certified in nutritional wellness.
The National Association of Nutrition Professionals (NANP) has approved graduates of the CCNH master of science in holistic nutrition program for eligibility to apply for a national board credential and to become registered with the organization. Once credentialed, the professional is allowed to use the designation, “Board Certified in Holistic Nutrition.”
The International Organization of Nutritional Consultants has approved the CCNH master of science in holistic nutrition. Graduates qualify to become members of the IONC. Active members are allowed to use the RNCP (Registered Nutritional Consulting Practitioner) designation.
