How a course works

Four steps, at your own pace, on your phone, tablet or laptop.

  1. 1

    Choose a course

    Pick a topic and level. Every course page lists the modules, the tools you get, who the course suits and anything to check with your GP, midwife or pharmacist first.

  2. 2

    Learn in short lessons

    Read a few minutes at a time. Your place is saved, so you can stop for the school run and pick up later on another device.

  3. 3

    Use the tools

    Fill in trackers, meal planners and checklists as you go. They save to your account, build into charts and download as PDFs.

  4. 4

    Get your certificate

    Answer at least 7 of the 10 final questions correctly to download a certificate with its own verification ID.

Learn it, then use it

Lessons link straight to a tool you can fill in on the spot: a meal balance checker after the lesson on the four food groups, a label comparison sheet after the lesson on the Nutrition Information Panel and Health Star Rating, a sleep diary after the lesson on sleep habits. Your entries save to your account and download as PDFs.

Questions people ask

Who are MyNutriCare courses for?

Adults in New Zealand who want practical, trustworthy help with everyday food and wellbeing: people who want to eat better, parents and parents-to-be, women in midlife, family carers and anyone building healthier habits. No prior knowledge is needed.

Are the courses medical advice?

No. The courses are general education about healthy habits, based on New Zealand public health guidance. They do not diagnose or treat any condition. If you have a health condition, are pregnant or take medicines, speak to your GP, midwife, pharmacist or another health professional before making changes.

Are the courses written for New Zealand?

Yes. The New Zealand edition follows New Zealand advice, such as the Eating and Activity Guidelines, the Ministry of Health's guidelines for feeding babies and toddlers and New Zealand Food Safety advice for pregnancy. It uses kilojoules, standard drinks, metric units and New Zealand services such as your LMC midwife, Plunket and Healthline.

What are the tools in each course?

Each course has its own interactive tools, such as trackers, meal planners, checklists, lunchbox builders, shopping lists and question sheets for appointments. Your entries save to your account and download as PDFs. See all the tool types.

How much do courses cost?

Courses cost from NZ$19.99 to NZ$47.99, depending on the level. Prices are in New Zealand dollars and include GST. You pay once per course, your access has no time limit, and there is no subscription.

Do I get a certificate?

Yes. When you answer at least 7 of the 10 final questions correctly, you can download a certificate of completion with your name, the course title and a verification ID. It shows you completed a general education course and is not a professional qualification.

Can I get a refund?

Yes, in most cases. 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 promise is in addition to your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993. Our refund policy has the details.
