The Academy of Culinary Nutrition is the home of the Culinary Nutrition Expert Program amongst other culinary, health, lifestyle and business courses. Our school is 100% online, with a remote team that extends across Canada. The core mission of our work is to inspire people to live a healthy lifestyle and share their knowledge and skills with others. We do this through blog posts, social media, courses and our flagship Culinary Nutrition Expert Program. We are a small team of four and work with a handful of brilliant contractors with whom we have long-term relationships. While running our core 14-week program, we ramp up our team to include 15–20 program coaches.

Core Values
1. Exceptional Experience
We believe in the work we do and we lend our brilliance, skills and knowledge to achieve the company goals and deliver an exceptional experience. We strive to build positive connections and loyalty with all of our customers, clients, students, readers and subscribers through everything we deliver and put out in the world. We value the extra sparkle and human touch that makes us exceptional at what we do. We bring ourselves to the task and show up in full force in order to deliver that exceptional experience.
2. Innovate and Lead
We apply original, creative thinking to everything we do, celebrating new recommendations and best practice innovations supported by data as proof. We strive to create new, simple and more efficient solutions by applying creative and critical thinking to everything we do. We seek out new recommendations, best practices and innovations supported by data and are open to calculated risks to continue to elevate to the next level and continue to be leaders in what we do.
3. Accountability
Our strength and leadership come from working together as a single team in our individual areas of brilliance. We strive to give 120% on every endeavour. We are accountable for our role within the team and the goals we set for ourselves and those set by the company. We take full ownership of both while aiming to achieve and exceed expectations. Understanding our dynamic work environment, we are each accountable to those goals, and should work effectively to reach them, with an awareness of when it may be time to change course or re-evaluate.
4. We Value Health At All Levels
We support and strive for health within ourselves and in our connections with each other. We are dedicated to nourishing relationships with our students/customers, our community, our partners, fellow team members as well as our work. Our focus on physical health through mindful food, movement and personal development work. By fostering open and honest communication, reflection and evaluation, we build trust with those around us and strive for equity within our relations. We are continually learning how we can better serve our community and our world through sustainable, health-building practices. As part of a remote team, we prioritize building a healthy team, fostering a healthy work-life balance and making our personal health and wellbeing a pillar in our lives.
