Our Educational Programs

Acupuncture Continuing Education Courses & Workshops

Throughout the year, CCATCM will hold classes ranging from one to several days on subjects covering basic theory and practice of ancient Chinese traditional treatments.

Our acupuncture workshops & classes

These classes run during a semester, alongside students currently enrolled in the intensive 2 year and 3 year programs. This way you can experience the environment to see if the program is the right fit for you without making a substantial financial commitment. Classes are offered at multiple times throughout the year and are taught by distinguished healthcare professionals with years of experience. This gives you the chance to work alongside CCATCM students. After completion of a workshop, participants can have the course credited towards a CCATCM diploma if they wish to sign up for an alternate program.
Students who complete self-interest courses are unable to practice what they have learned unless they complete either the intensive two-year or three-year acupuncture diploma program.
