Fall 2026 Food for Life Training

The Physicians Committee’s Online Food for Life Training Course prepares trainees to deliver the award-winning Food for Life nutrition and cooking classes that were designed by physicians, nurses, and dietitians. Food for Life is the Physicians Committee’s longest-standing nutrition program and has been providing individuals with the knowledge and tools for plant-based eating for 24 years. The training is also intended for institutions with a nutrition or health focus looking for an established and evidence-based plant-based nutrition education program to offer their customers or employees. The training is an 8-week self-paced, online course that equips graduates to deliver in-person and online Food for Life classes in their communities. Content is provided on-demand, with weekly required live Zoom sessions and additional optional sessions for networking and office hours. The Physicians Committee team and experienced Food for Life instructors provide guidance and support throughout the training program and beyond.
