Subtopics on this page…
To apply for admission to RMHI's professional courses, you must first qualify as a member in RMHInet by successfully completing Herbalists' BootCamp. To apply for admission to Herbalists' BootCamp, just follow the instructions in BootCamp Tutorial #1. For more information, see also: Getting started; applying for admission; guidelines for Level-1 students 1. Information for applicants for admissionWe welcome international health care practitioners and students! For a bird's-eye view of prerequisites, course requirements, fees, etc. for all our course options, see http://www.rmhiherbal.org/ai/c-tchs-curricsum.html FAQ answering common questions from prospective students: http://www.rmhiherbal.org/ai/faq.html For a collection of links to other miscellaneous information about our courses: http://www.rmhiherbal.org/ai/catalog.html 2. Terms of enrollment2.1 - PrerequisitesAs of 2016: There are now NO prerequisites, except the requirement of successfully completing our 'Herbalists' BootCamp'. Anatomy, physiology, and misc. biomedical topics are integrated into the Level-1 curriculum on a self-study basis, with instructors available to answer questions. We have over 15 years of student performance statistics to prove that our Herbalists' BootCamp, which includes a self-administered aptitude test, is far more predictive of your ability to successfully apply the knowledge you will learn than any college degrees or formal academic achievement. We have had people of widely varied backgrounds complete our courses, from gardeners, homemakers, carpenters, massage therapists, physicians, computer programmers... Like some major corporations, we are now "college-neutral" and place far more importance on your life experiences, ability to solve practical problems, natural pattern-recognition abilities, etc. All applicants, regardless of academic background, must complete our (greatly simplified) application for admission see section [3] below. 2.2 - Tuition paymentsAll 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/ 2.3 - Refund policyRefunds 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. 2.4 - Course materials, usage limitationsThe course software and Self-Study Course 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. 2.5 - Conduct(1) Course participants should conduct themselves in a manner appropriate to ethical and compassionate health professionals at all times and they 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. 2.6 - Changes in courses, schedules, and feesEnrollment 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.)
