In 1990, the Classical Homeopathy Certificate Program was established as a branch of the Massage Therapy Institute of Colorado (USA). The original program, founded by Mark Manton and Barbara Seideneck, was approved by the State of Colorado and enrolled twenty-three students at the Denver, Colorado site. This program, one of the first modern homeopathy trainings offered in the United States, soon expanded from a one-year to three-year training.
Further development and expansion led to establishing the school as an independent institution. By September 1995 the school earned its non-profit status 501(c)(3). In 1996 the school moved to Boulder, Colorado, at the foot of the gorgeous Rocky Mountains.
The school’s Distance Education Program was established in 2002 in response to a growing demand for the availability of homeopathic education outside of Boulder, Colorado. Nationally and internationally recognized for excellence in homeopathic education, the Homeopathy School International (HSI) now offers study options to students worldwide. The school has graduated professional homeopaths since 1991.
I have been a professional student my whole adult life, so I feel that I have a lot of experience with which to compare my tenure at HSI. The classes are focused, well organized and taught in a way to be intellectually rigorous and stimulating. The program makes the study of homeopathy come to life, providing an excellent foundation to become a good practitioner. I can sincerely say that the two years at HSI yielded one of the most fulfilling learning opportunities I’ve ever had.
Advisory Council
The school’s advisory council provides recommendations for the continuing improvement and enrichment of the school’s educational programs. The council meets annually and includes homeopathic practitioners, students, alumni, and community members representing alternative healing modalities.
It helped me immensely to watch everyone working on cases. I especially appreciate reviewing our own case studies.
I was completely impressed with the program. I appreciate how well-organized it was, the quality of the instructors, the support of faculty, and how this program has given me a much deeper appreciation and understanding of homeopathy. I truly enjoyed the teaching.
The teacher is a joy to be around. The humor she brings with her in-depth knowledge is brilliant. What a joy to be instructed by her.
I have to admit that I was scared to attempt this at home, but thanks to your support, this turned out to be one of my best school experiences.
I love the home study format – it enables me to study at my own pace. Great materials that follow the lectures – very understandable. The instructors are very engaging and interesting!
I feel the curriculum flows nicely. I love how detailed the handouts are and that they are in order with the videos. I find it very easy to make notes and follow along. I appreciate the real life examples and what the instructors share about their own cases.
You were instrumental in showing me a whole new way to view healing and I thank you for that.
I can absorb the knowledge because of how the remedies are presented and cross referenced with skits, stories, quizzes and tests combined. This gives me a strong focus for my studies.
This program is terrific. I’m glad I chose this school. I’ve recommended it to a lot of others who are interested in studying homeopathy.
I really like the way the lectures are presented and like the variety of teachers, each of them bringing an interesting approach.
The Homeopathy School has given me an extraordinary homeopathic education. As a distance student, the classroom experience came to me virtually and I was able to learn along with my classmates. The instruction was among the finest available and the scope of the information prepared me for a successful homeopathic practice. My instructors were always available by phone or email.
The openness of the instructor demonstrating her own experience makes it all less intimidating. There is a certain “sense of wonder” to her style that is encouraging for the beginner.
Deeply enjoyable, highly informative with information clearly and succinctly presented. My interest was held by the pace in which the material was taught.
The instructor’s love for homeopathy and her commitment to bringing it into the world is apparent. She conveys concepts clearly and ties in examples of interesting cases. She makes potentially difficult concepts easy to understand.
So far I am enjoying the program and I feel that I am learning a lot. I have two Bachelor degrees, a Masters degree and much other education “under my belt” and this program in Homeopathy, in general, is the most enjoyable and rewarding learning experience I have ever had. Thanks!
Support faculty have responded to my questions quickly and returned my assignments very promptly.
I will say I am totally amazed at how very complex this study is. I am impressed with the amount and presentation of the information. I believe having various teachers and speakers for seminars is an extremely valuable part of the program and it gives all of us a wider view of this field and a much deeper understanding of the art involved in homeopathy.
Great! Awesome! I enjoy the clear explanations, the process, the objectivity. I enjoy most that I feel I am learning!
The video lessons were great! I forgot that I was sitting in my living room.
I congratulate the program and the instructors for the organization of the course and the academic level offered. Each course is well selected and properly structured according to level of learning achieved. I want to highlight my personal case supervisor who has been very helpful with her comments, as well as my support faculty with her help in the different assignments. Thank you! And thank you to each of my teachers for transmitting the love for what they do and for teaching me how to heal in a kind and effective way. The program exceeded my expectations!
