Our programmes are designed to teach acupuncturists, healthcare individuals and alumni a range of TCM skills and knowledge in order to enhance their own professional practice and careers.
We have worked with 1000s of students over the years and will continue to do so thanks to our highly experienced and respected lecturers who each have over 30+ years of clinical and academic practice, both in China and the UK, and are able to share that knowledge and experience in their teaching and support.
Our skilfully crafted syllabus provides the depth of knowledge and wisdom that will enable our 3 Year Chinese Herbal Diploma students to graduate with a recognised qualification and lead them on to further opportunities – further study to degree level or taking their qualifications directly to improved treatment of their patients.
We offer regular CPD Masterclasses alongside our 3 Year Chinese Herbal Medicine Diploma programme which are listed here:
