We reserve the right to change fees, schedules, and course offerings
due to enrollment and economic factors beyond our control.
You may order the Traditional Chinese Herbal Sciences CD-ROM at any time;
no admission application is necessary if you do not wish to partipate in
the Level-1 option.
If you are interested in applying for admission, you may either purchase
the CD-ROM first and then apply for admission later, or you may apply for
admission first and wait to be accepted before buying the CD-ROM or paying
any fees.
If you are not a practicing physician (MD, DO, ND, DC, or equivalent), you
must submit evidence of having completed human anatomy and physiology
courses; courses in biochemistry and pathology are desirable but not
required. (We recognize that many herbalists will have attained some of
this knowledge from self-study, and documentation of such self-study may
be acceptable if outlined in detail.) Completion of Level 1 is required
for admission to courses at Levels 2 and 3.
To begin the Level 1 program, please submit a completed application for
admission - see section [5] below.
All course fees are to be made payable to "Rocky Mountain Herbalists
Trust c/o Roger Wicke". For payment options, see
http://www.rmhiherbal.org/payments/
Refunds for Level-3 seminars requested prior to due dates will be charged
a 20% processing fee. No refunds will be given for seminar fees after the
corresponding due dates. However, if a course registrant gives notice of
withdrawal from a seminar before the first day of class, the fees paid
may, at the instructor's option, be credited toward any future course
taught by the instructor that begins within 18 months after the starting
date of the course from which the registrant has withdrawn.
All other tuition fees are non-refundable.
Course participants must keep confidential the answers to all written
homework assignments.
The course textbooks and the Self-Study CD-ROM are copyrighted and may
not be copied without the author's permission. The only exceptions to this
are clinical charts included in the appendices, which course participants
and software licensees may photocopy or print for their own use only.
(1) Course participants should conduct themselves in a manner
appropriate to health professionals at all times and should respect the
safety, well-being, and integrity of other class members, staff members,
and clients.
(2) Confidentiality of clients' and course participants' health and
personal information must be maintained.
(3) All homework, progress reports, and exams submitted must be the
product of each course participant's own labors and effort.
Additional reasonable regulations may be adopted for the safety and
well-being of clients, course participants, and staff members, and shall
be effective upon receipt of notification.
Enrollment for each course is independent from each other section;
registrants may drop out of the program after completing any course section
for which they have already paid. Likewise, RMHI commits to offering
courses one level or seminar at a time; due to unforeseen circumstances,
such as increases in national monetary inflation, lack of enrollment, or
other crisis, we reserve the right to change published fees, schedules, or
course offerings for future course sections prior to their respective
tuition due dates. (We have offered this program since 1992 and thus far
have been able to adhere to published fees and schedules or to provide
equivalent options.)
