The Clinical Herbalist Program Pre-requisites

The pre-requisites for this course are our Family Herbalist program and our Community Herbalist program. Together, that's over 1200 hours of education.

Once you have completed these two programs, you'll take the exam at the end and schedule your session to go over your exam with Ryn and Katja together. Then you will be invited to join the Clinical Herbalist program.

If you have already studied herbalism through another school, and you would like to join the Clinical Herbalist program, you are welcome to start with the Clinical Herbalist coursework.

You can find all of the information about the Clinical Herbalist coursework here:

There is no exam required to access the Clinical Herbalist coursework - you can take it at any time. The only one who needs to decide if you're ready is you!

If you choose to jump directly into the Clinical Herbalist coursework, each course contains a list of pre-requisites. That way, you'll know what material you should be confident with before you start. If you have met those pre-requisites at another school, you're ready to go!

But if you get going in one of the Clinical courses and you're realizing that you have a lot of foundational questions, it's no problem! You can just grab the pre-requisite course(s) that you need at any time! We want to make sure that you have all the material that you need to develop these skills.

And we're always here to help you navigate the material - plus, there are weekly live Q&A sessions and we reply to written questions daily, so you never have to wait for an answer!

The only thing that requires an exam before you join is the Live Clinical Mentorship.

You can learn more about that program here:

We want to ensure that all students have an empowering and successful experience as they prepare for their own clinical practice!

We also want to ensure that all clients receive the best care and support, and that it is consisted across all of our student practitioners.

For this reason, we do not allow students to enroll in the Live Clinical Mentorship program until they have completed either the Community Herbalist exam or the Clinical Herbalist exam and we have met together with you (via web conference) to discuss your path. We will not make exceptions.
