No courses match these filters. Try another topic or price, or clear the filters to see everything.
These three courses cover the basics that most other courses build on: the four food groups, food labels and eating well when money is tight.
| Level | What you get | Typical length | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Foundation | The essentials of one topic in plain words, with a few core tools. | About 1 hour | NZ$19.99 to NZ$24.99 |
| Focused | One topic in depth, with more examples and a full set of tools. | About 2 hours | NZ$24.99 to NZ$37.99 |
| Premium | A complete course across a whole area, with the widest range of tools. | About 4 to 5 hours | NZ$37.99 to NZ$47.99 |
Every level has at least five modules, a final check of 10 questions and a certificate when you pass. Prices are in New Zealand dollars and include GST, and you pay once.
Our New Zealand courses use the guidance you will hear from your GP, LMC midwife or Plunket nurse:
Food label lessons teach the Nutrition Information Panel and the Health Star Rating, with energy in kilojoules first. Alcohol is counted in New Zealand standard drinks, and all amounts are metric. Where New Zealand advice differs from advice overseas, for example on supplements before and during pregnancy, the lesson follows the New Zealand advice and tells you to confirm it with your midwife, GP or pharmacist.
Each course page lists who the course suits, what to check with a health professional first and the official sources it is based on.
If you want to eat better in general, start with Understanding New Zealand's Eating and Activity Guidelines. If you have a specific goal, such as starting solids, pregnancy or menopause, choose that topic and start with its Foundation or Focused course.
No. Every course is written in plain English for adults with no background in nutrition or health.
No. You pay once per course, in New Zealand dollars with GST included, and your access has no time limit.
Courses are linked to the account that buys them, so the person who will take the course should buy it with their own account. If you need help with this, contact us.
You can have a full refund within 14 days of purchase if you have completed less than 20% of the course and no certificate has been issued. This is in addition to your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993. See our refund policy.
Pick a course, open the first lesson on your phone and try the first tool the same day.
