The Hahnemann College is proud to present these certificate programs for existing practitioners and graduates who are looking for a more detailed training in these areas. A knowledge of the main drugs and herbs commonly prescribed to patients today, their effects and interactions in terms of disease-engenderment and nutrient depletion is critical to removing obstacles to cure. No practitioner can afford to be without this key knowledge.

All courses are available as self-standing study units for home study with the assistance of a personal Tutor assigned from the HCH faculty.

While this important knowledge is part of the comprehensive training for practitioners at the College in homeopathic medicine and medical Heilkunst, we wish to make it available more broadly.

Currently, we offer the following courses to those not enrolled in the regular practitioner diploma programs of the College:
