Introduction
The Diploma of Dr TCM is an extension of our 4-Year (2600 hrs.) Diploma of TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine). The fifth year of study's focus is to deepen the understanding of Chinese herbal medicine therapies, Acupuncture, and western medical methods. In addition to the above focus, students will learn modern clinical research methods, advanced TCM modalities, TCM approach to psychology, and greater exploration of Classical TCM texts. During the clinical internship component of this fifth year of study, students will further solidify their treatment style in preparation for their future career as doctors of TCM.
Graduates of the Diploma of Dr TCM program are eligible to be Registered Dr TCM in the province of British Columbia. Graduates must write a licensing exam in BC. They can practice as a Dr TCM independently or employed by any TCM Clinic.
VBCCM's curriculum offers a wide variety of programs from a Chinese perspective, teaching all aspects of Traditional Chinese Medicine, including Acupuncture, Moxibustion, Herbology, Tui Na, and Qi Gong. Classes in Traditional Chinese Medicine are taught both in Canada and China by highly regarded Doctors of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
