Is this for me?
If you are interested in becoming a professional homeopath, the completion of this program will give you the qualifications to enter the profession as an independent practitioner of classical homeopathy. If you are a healthcare practitioner or physician and would like to expand your expertise with homeopathy, this program provides you with a professional level of homeopathic skill to add to your practice.
What do I get?
Upon graduation you will receive the Professional Practitioner Certificate (CHom). Certification from HSI stands for the achievement of a professional level of competency in the art and science of homeopathy. Completion of the program also provides the requirements for national certification with the Council for Homeopathic Certification if you choose to get nationally certified.
You can choose from two study options for the Practitioner Certificate Program. Course content, instructors and materials are the same for the two options.
Four courses with five modules each – 125 hours per course

Regardless of your location, you have access to the study of homeopathy with the school’s cutting edge, integrated curriculum, expert faculty and tutor support. You can fit your studies to your personal schedule and become a professional homeopath.

All assignments are explained in detail and outlined in a substantial study guide. Feedback and support are provided by nationally certified homeopaths. Completed assignments are emailed or mailed to your tutor and case supervisor.
