Dr Vivien Rolfe, NCIM's Academic Co-Director, explains: "There's lots of learning content out there, but this two-year programme really helps practitioners and therapists become the Integrative Healthcare practitioners they want to be."

Through modules like Business Development, students go from initial vision to comprehensive business plan - learning financial strategy, marketing, and practice design.

The impact speaks for itself: graduates are launching their own integrative practices and establishing integrative centres within hospitals and medical practices across the globe.

This isn't just about learning Integrative Healthcare. It's about building the skills and confidence to practice it successfully in the real world.
