Acupuncture for Surviving Adversity
Registration Closed
with Yvonne Farrell
Dates TBA for 2022
The best learning comes from being able to interact with the teachers and your peers in your program. Our profession is one of the few health professions without an internship… The Healthy Seminars solution is mentorship from senior practitioners.
The program will have a start and finish date where you can do some self-pace learning as well as interact with peers and the teachers. A great chance to ask questions as you work through the material and review case studies too. It is basically a hybrid model where you watch some recorded lectures plus the teachers and assistants will have office hours to review case studies in real-time as well as a forum to discuss the material with each other and ask for input on cases.
This is a great opportunity to receive and offer peer support and to gain confidence and deeper understanding through mentorship.
