I enjoyed the program and the material…
I enjoyed the program and the material covered. I had trouble with making appointments with Success Coaches (and they hired additional success coaches after I had completed the program). I also wasn't able to make it to the Office Hours because they fell when I was at work. The program is expensive, but the tuition department was very kind and helpful. Overall, I really enjoyed the program and I do recommend it to others.

Hi Amanda, Thank you for your feedback, we do sincerely apologise if you had issues scheduling Success Coach calls. We try to have as many spaces available to our students, which is why we also hired several more coaches as you mentioned to fill any previous limitation on our system. Our goal is to service any and all availability of our students. In regards to Office Hours, we are unfortunately a little more restricted as these rely on the schedule of our founders Carey and Stacey, and therefore some students may not be able to make the live calls. We do however provide call recordings, and students are more than welcome to send in questions to be asked on the calls. I am glad that your overall experience was a positive one, Amanda. We are always happy to hear this type of great feedback, so we sincerely thank you for that. Bob Corlett Head of Student Support

I have really enjoyed my experience with Health Coach institute. Everyone has been very helpful and the knowledge I have received has been useful and easy to understand. They put things in real life and not just text book Information.

The content is excellent
The content is excellent. The recordings need updating and modulating of the voices. The website could use an overhaul.

Hi Alix, Thank you so much for your feedback. In regards to your comments, we recently launched our updated and revamped BHC 2.0. This includes updated content, recordings, delivery style and student interactive options. This will become available for all of our past students early 2019, please keep a look out for an email and FB group notification on this! Thank you again for taking the time to provide your feedback, Alix. We always want to provide our students with the best experience possible and these type of comments have helped tremendously for our current and future cohorts, (who we are sure appreciate it!).

I LOVE Health Coach Institute and have…
I LOVE Health Coach Institute and have referred two people who have signed up. I have paid way more for another academy and although very different, it didn't provide nearly what HCI does for the cost and the program is great! I have been coaching now ever since getting certified and loving it!

Waste of money
Waste of money. Very little nutritional information, just a few "theories" picked out of the air (blood type theory? Really?) This is just a very expensive class on how to teach self-care to others which will earn you an unnecessary certificate. And the self-care techniques are questionable at best. The only decent content of this class was the marketing portion. They also fail to mention how over-saturated the Health Coach field actually is and how much money you'll have to spend up front to market yourself. Spend your money elsewhere.

Hi Meghann, Thank you for providing your feedback to us here. We always welcome comments and concerns from our students so that we may seek to improve and update our courses. As a graduate you will be aware that our Become a Health Coach program covers 4 broad topics we consider core aspects of being a successful Health Coach. These topics are referred to as Pillars within the program and they delineate the information provided on Nutrition, Health and Wellness (Pillar 1), Transformational Coaching Skills (Pillar 2), Personal Growth (Pillar 3) and Proven Marketing and Business Systems (Pillar 4). A course syllabus and breakdown is available to all students before, during and after enrollment. We pride ourselves on giving absolute clarity to all of our students to ensure they have all the information they need to make a truly informed decision when joining with us. The curriculum we have in place is a reflection of the experience our founders and graduates have gathered throughout years of experience and training. The efficacy of our content has been proven by its success among many of our graduates and we are confident our program provides the most effective, practical and well-rounded Health Coach training available. In relation to employment opportunities, HCI is consistently working to promote the field of Health Coaching and to expand the opportunities available to our graduates, be they self-employed or employed and across all settings be they urban or rural, physical or digital. Our HCI Community platform and Coach Connect systems are examples of the steps we are taking to provide these opportunities. Ultimately, we do sincerely regret that the course did not meet your expectations. We truly want all of our graduates to be happy and successful after their time with us and will always seek to use these opportunities to see where we can evolve and improve the student experience. We do strongly encourage you to stay connected with your Tribe and take part in any and all social aspects of HCI as our graduates support, encourage, inspire and uplift each other as they all move into their Health Coach journey. Should you have any further issues at all, please do let us know. Kind regards, Bob Corlett Head of Student Support

The Program is designed in such a way that let you be "you" with your own intuition, open mind and vision, however is far away from total freedom, because you always have a precise guide that help you focus on the key things that matter for your practice, (like mastering consistency and becoming real confident) from where ever knowledge you are coming from and are bringing to best fit you in your journey to successful coaching.

I started from ZERO knowledge about health coaching in May 2018 and I didn't have any idea what I am going to do after I get certified. After completing the course requirements I have absolute confidence that I can help people reach their goals in health and life. I trust the program and know that it is working, not only because I saw the change in my practice clients, but most importantly I saw it first within myself. BHC changed my life, my beliefes, stretch my vision for what I am capable of achieving and gave me a chance to spread my wings and follow my dreams. The support, the stretch, the love, provided throughout the course is amazing and trully empowering! You can ask anything and recieve so many answers and different points of view. It is such a warm nice feeling of belonging, realizing that you have finally found your people, your tribe, knowing that together you are serving something bigger. If you want the best value for your investment, consider enrolling in the program! You are not going to regret!

Would do it over and over again! :)
I wish my training and access with HCI could last forever! What an incredible, caring group of people and a beautiful, user-friendly site! Not only are there fantastic "done-for-you" programs (that you can customize), great bonuses, and incredible support, but there are awesome features like resume and interview support as well. This team is AMAZING and always goes above and beyond to make sure every student understands, learns and succeeds. Would definitely recommend!!

It must of been God how I came across this program because to this day I still don't know how I did!! But I super glad I did!! This program is AMAZING!! Its like to good to be true. This pillars (lessons) are very comprehensible. The team ois right there. They are on time with information. I'll have a wonder in my mind and WOW there is a live explaining just what I needed an answer to. If you're looking for a program this the program to go through. You will not be disappointed. Everyone even other people that are taking this program are super helpful. No one holds information everyone wants to see everyone grow. Its just amazing!! I've never seen anything like it before.

Dont drink the low fat, sugar free Kool Aid....
Doesn't matter what you say or how much proof you have, the response is the same. Argue in circles then close your ticket saying it was resolved. When you bring things up again they will state they addressed your concerns and the ticket was closed within 24 hours. HCI, just because you reply doesn't mean that's the end. The issue is resolved when your client says, Thank you. That's all." Program description is totally misleading. Attendees are either fanatical and filled with hope for a life as a coach or frustrated and just continuing because HCI will refuse to refund you, even when you prove they lied about the course. Oh, they will also reply back with responses saying they did everything by the book and properly except nope, they didnt. Just because you reply we told you everything doesn't make that the truth. No, the facts were not explained. No, my access was not consistent. No, your education is not as promised. Yes, you have replied. No, the issue is not resolved just because HCI says it is. For example I asked HCI and their loan collection company if a refund was not possible would it be acceptable to be released from the course? The request has been submitted and noted in my account twice now since November... no reply. I'm sure HCI will have a great answer about how that is somehow my fault as well.

Dear Regina, We are sorry your experience with us was less than satisfactory. We are always working to improve our educational platform for our students and use any and all feedback to aid us in this goal. I believe we addressed your concerns when you reached out to the BBB and a detailed correspondence was provided there. Essentially, what was mentioned there was broken into 3 categories in regards to your complaint. I shall not reiterate the full conversation regarding each concern, but will summarize each once below; 1 - BHC course content and expectations were confirmed to be provided up front at enrollment along with availability of company to answer any questions or concerns regarding the program. All information provided was deemed true and accurate at enrollment. 2 - A check on your correspondence history with the team confirmed that all inquiries were responded to and every action was taken to ensure we provided all information when requested. 3 - BLC course delivery and availability was confirmed as being presented at enrollment and no misinformation was given regarding the course and its components along with our certificate process. In summary, whilst we regret any misunderstanding of the course, its delivery, our support process and the certificate process, after a thorough check we are confident that all information provided was accurate, that our support team provided high level service upon request at every turn, and no false information nor misconceptions were provided by us throughout your time in the program. Because of the above, your request for withdrawal was denied and no further action was taken regarding your requests. Yours sincerely, Bob Corlett Health Coach Institute Head of Student Support

This program is a scam
This program is a scam. I signed up in September for the August clads & attempted to withdraw within 30 days due to hardship. I was told that the deadline for my class passed although it was before I signed up for the course. Really contemplating filing a lawsuit against them.

Hi Rose, This is Bob Corlett, Head of Support at Health Coach Institute. I wanted to clarify here our position regarding your account as has been stated to you during our private correspondence. When enrolling for our program, all students are informed that our refund period is 30 days from the start of the course, not from date of enrollment. This is confirmed on enrollment calls and also in writing on terms and conditions that must be read and signed before course access is given. We confirmed that no request for withdrawal was received from you until after your refund period had expired. This unfortunately meant we were unable to grant a withdrawal from the BHC program. We do apologise if any of this was misunderstood, but we must also treat all our students with fairness in order to ensure the integrity of the company as an educational institute. From looking at the history of our correspondence with you, along with our enrollment procedures, we are confident that all information provided was clear and accurate. Please do connect with our tuition team if you wish to discuss your payment. Yours sincerely, Bob Corlett Head of Student Support

Health Coach Institute = Change Your Life & Your World Institute!
This program exceeded my expectations and has changed my life! I signed up wanting to learn more on healthy living with no real intention of wanting to be a coach. I learned not only how to change my habits but the value in how to help others achieve the life they desire. The content was thoughtfully laid out, clear/concise, and provides skills labs and accountability to immediately practice what you learn. I was able to fit course work within my busy life and full time job. They provided everything I need to feel confident and start coaching which is something I WANT to do now! Seeing how going through this course changed my life makes me want to pass the change along to others. I highly recommend this to others even if it means just taking the first step for yourself! You will be forever changed!

I'm more than satisfied by the caliber of the training I've received through the Health Coach Institute. The team is top notch & the guidance, support, & opportunity for personal growth throughout the training is really incredible. I highly recommend this business for anyone seriously considering beginning or upgrading any coaching career (health, life, sleep, writing, or whatever type of coach you want to be). If your goal is to make a massive positive impact in this world through service to others, and make a nice living while doing so, HCI has paved the road for you to follow.

Absolutely blessed by HCI
I almost tear up when I think how blessed I've been to be part of HCI. After 18 months of studying with HCI I have felt so supported, stretched and inspired. I'm a picky student but I have never found one place where HCI doesn't come through so fully and with total integrity.

Seriously the best program
Seriously the best program! It has been great all around. I have been doing the program for myself and losing weight, and then at the same time I'm able to work with clients as well! HCI is the whole package...they cover every aspect of health coaching as well as the business end of things. The accountability and help is beyond excellent!
