Everyone has the Data. Almost no one can read it.

CGM Fundamentals for Health + Wellness Coaches is the foundation module of the Glucose Pattern Recognition Methodology™ (GPRM™), the systematic framework for interpreting continuous glucose monitor data in a coaching practice. One-hour, self-paced, and approved by the National Board for Health & Wellness Coaching for 1.5 CEUs.

What You Will Learn

01

Why a glucose number tells you almost nothing, and a glucose pattern tells you almost everything.
Nearly every mistake made with CGM data comes from treating the first as though it were the second. This distinction is what the whole methodology rests on.
02

How to read a trace in a fixed order.
Not by instinct, and not by looking for the number that stands out. A repeatable sequence of passes over the same graph, in the same order, every time, which is what turns an impression into a hypothesis.
03

What the sensor is actually measuring.
Including the lag, the calibration behavior, and the artifacts that look like physiology but are not. Coaches routinely coach on noise. This is how you stop.
04

Coach. Monitor. Refer.™ the decision at the end of every interpretation.
A clear, ethical framework for acting on what you see and knowing when your next best move is to involve a clinician. This is where good coaching protects clients and livelyhood.
05

How to explain what you see
so clients understand it, can act on it, and stay engaged. Clarity protects trust. This is the translation layer between your brain and their behavior.

Course Details: CGM Fundamentals for Health + Wellness Coaches is a foundational continuing education course designed for NBC-HWCs seeking to integrate continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data into their coaching practice. Covering blood glucose physiology, CGM technology, core metric interpretation, practical client education strategies, and the NBC-HWC scope of practice, this course equips coaches with the knowledge and ethical framework to use CGM as a behavior change coaching tool. Developed by Amanda Davis, Founder of BioFit and former NASA ISS Payload + Experiment Operations Controller with almost 30 years of personal glucose and CGM experience. All content is delivered within the NBHWC Scope of Practice.

Learning Objectives: Upon completion of CGM Fundamentals for Health + Wellness Coaches, the coach will be able to:

1. Explain the physiological process of glucose metabolism, including the roles of insulin, glucagon, and glycogen, and describe how lifestyle factors such as sleep, stress, nutrition, and movement influence blood glucose regulation in non-diabetic clients.
2. Compare the key features, accuracy considerations, and appropriate use cases of currently available continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices for use in a health and wellness coaching context.
3. Identify and interpret the five core CGM metrics, including time in range, mean glucose, glucose variability, peak response, and fasting baseline, and explain their relevance to client lifestyle and wellness goals.
4. Apply practical CGM onboarding strategies and client education techniques that support client engagement, data literacy, and behavior change within a coaching framework.
5. Articulate the scope of practice boundaries for NBC-HWCs when integrating CGM data into coaching sessions, including ethical considerations, referral protocols, and appropriate use of glucose data in client conversations.
