NTC Grandparenting scheme
All Nutritional Therapists can register with the Nutritional Therapy Council (NTC) via Route A, Route B or Route C depending on the year they graduated. Details on which route applies to each individual Nutritional Therapist can be found from the NTC website:
http://www.nutritionaltherapycouncil.org.uk/HowdoIapply.html
As Grandparenting process ends on 30 September 2009, all practitioners who wish to be registered with the NTC have to submit their application by then.
All forms for Route A, Route B and Route C can be downloaded from the NTC website: http://www.nutritionaltherapycouncil.org.uk/HowdoIapply.html
The National Occupational Standards (NOS), Core Curriculum and Learning Outcomes can be found from the NTC website: http://www.nutritionaltherapycouncil.org.uk/Keydocs.htm
Route A & B applicants:
Please contact ION at grandparenting@ion.ac.uk should you need previous course syllabus to support your application. Please note this is not a requirement from the NTC.
Route C applicants: ION graduates between 2001-2007
ION has now received approval for graduates to register with the Nutritional Therapy Council (NTC) via route C. The NTC has confirmed that ION graduates between 2001-2007 have met all the key learning outcomes of the core curriculum and National Occupational Standards (NOS) with a few exceptions. As a result ION graduates can join the register immediately. When renewing membership of the Nutritional Therapy Council, graduates will need to provide evidence that they have purchased the recommended material and/or completed the omitted learning outcomes.
The Nutritional Therapy Council has also recommended that all graduates who submit applications to join the Nutritional Therapy Council via route C should also submit a completed practice audit with their application and then when ready, submit the remaining CPD for other areas omitted.
Details on the CPD requirements for Route C applicants can be found here: http://www.nutritionaltherapycouncil.org.uk/RouteC.htm
To support ION graduates with their NTC application via Route C, ION is pleased to offer Grandparenting CPD Learning Packs on the following:
