Transformative Education

Our curriculums are revolutionizing health and nutrition education by providing our practitioners and students with all of the tools and training they need to inspire eagerness, and create positive, lasting transformation for their clients, patients—and themselves. We believe in creating agents of change that are crucial partners in the healthcare revolution. We believe in a “first for you, then for others” approach to learning, meaning you must first learn to create transformation for yourself before you can successfully do so for others.

Masterful Teachers

Our world-renowned teachers have created extremely successful careers in their specific zone of genius—but their real genius lies in knowing WHY it matters, how to put it into practice, and sharing their wisdom in a way that’s relatable, engaging, and easy to understand.

Career-Readiness

Our education programs combine lesson-based learning, hands-on learning, and expansive mentorship to help practitioners and students become masters of their craft and become the go-to professional in their community with unshakable confidence, all while creating abundant careers of their choosing.

Heart-Centered Community

We are a global network of like-minded individuals who share the same unified mission to promote wellness-driven lifestyles and reverse chronic disease. We support our students and graduates throughout every stage of their education and professional journey with opportunities to connect, learn, and grow together. Our community will likely become your support network of fellow coaches and practitioners for years to come.

Forward-Thinking Research

Empowered Education is looking into the future by planning for continued expansion in the U.S. and internationally, in addition to investing in research that shows the efficacy of our Functional Nutrition and Health Coaching programs in improving health outcomes for those suffering from chronic disease.

The World’s Leading Coaches & Health Practitioners
Trust Empowered Education

“Joining Health Coach Institute has been one of the best learning experiences of my career. I have a bachelors and masters degree in education. The programs offered by HCI have so much value for not only preparing students to build successful health coaching practices, but it also serves as an incredible catalyst for personal growth and change as well. So many things set HCI apart from other learning experiences, but my favorite thing is the incredible tribe of like-minded people from diverse backgrounds in health, wellness, fitness, and medicine. The support and encouragement is amazing! I love HCI and highly recommend their programs!”
