The Course Curriculum: How it Works
We keep it simple: the entire WAG Certification course exists within our easy-to-use online platform. The curriculum is broken up into multiple phases, the first of which you’ll be given immediate access to following registration for the program, and each remaining phase is unlocked upon successful completion of the one before it.
Intro to Flexible Dieting and Nutrition Science
Learn from the best of the best in nutrition science and the people who put their knowledge to work. Here, you’ll have access to world-renowned research, and the opportunity to take full advantage of our library of reference material to use as you work with your own clients.
The WAG Knowledge Base: Understanding Clients and their Needs
Each person is unique, and “healthy nutrition” is not a one-size-fits-all prescription. Here, we take a deep-dive into our main focus area – macros. What are they, how do they work, and how do you assign them according to your client’s goals?
Creating Sample Profiles (Application)
Have you ever heard it said that knowledge is nothing without action? Here, you’ll put your learning to work through assigning macronutrient programs to variable client scenarios and connecting with us, personally, to discuss your philosophy and show us how you arrived at your conclusions.
WAG Level 2 Coaching Manual (Nutrition and Psychology)
Here, we focus largely on your approach to coaching clients successfully, which includes everything from when to speak and when to listen, motivation and mindfulness, and how to scale your own business while combating imposter syndrome, practicing self-care and time and energy management.
Sample Client Check-ins & Advanced, Challenging Scenarios
In the fifth and final stage of this program, you’ll have the opportunity to prove your unique ability to respond to client check-ins as though you were their coach, receive feedback from your certification administrator, and practice creative, personalized planning for the next stage of their journey.
Specialty Programs - Ketogenic Diet & Coaching Pregnant Women
Learn how to set macros for keto clients, train individuals in their diet and educate them about how to test ketones. Additionally, learn pregnancy physiology and trimester-specific, nutrition-rich recommendations for soon-to-be-moms so that you can properly support women to healthy pregnancies.
Coaching By Real-Life Coaches

An Empathetic Approach.
We don’t teach anything we haven’t learned, and every single WAG Coach was once a student. We understand the vulnerability it takes for someone to admit they’re in need. Successful nutrition coaching isn’t just academic – it’s inventive and discerning. Sure, we’ll teach you the science, but we’ll also help you navigate emotional waters to coach your clients toward success.

Pertinent Psychology.
It has been said that “a better life starts in the mind,” and you won’t get far with your clients without their belief in their ability to change. Most diets fail not because they don’t work — but because people don’t stick to them. Through the WAG Certification, you’ll learn a unique approach to self development by helping them connect the dots between what they eat and what they believe.
