Catalog of courses: distance-learning, seminars, and certification in the Chinese herbal sciences

Our courses appeal to a wide variety of people, from health practitioners wanting to develop new skills to self-motivated individuals seeking methods for maintaining and improving their families' health. In recent years, our students have included an increasing number of home-schooled, self-educated, and independent-minded people who recognize that many of our institutions and corporations have sabotaged our health care system, which is in a state of collapse from entrenched corruption. We provide these people with the educational tools, support, and the confidence to step outside the box of conventional education and thinking.
