Herbal Medicine
is gaining interest and popularity across the country. Consumer demand for more
information and qualified practitioners in the field is growing at a very
rapid pace. K.P.S. Khalsa has
developed this professional level training course to meet these growing
needs. This program
draws from the wisdom and experience of Traditional Chinese Medicine,
Ayurvedic Medicine, European and Native Herbalism. This nine month
training program is structured into three conveniently scheduled modules.
Each module is scheduled for three weekends throughout the quarter. This
program is focused on gaining knowledge about the different herbs, their
use and the traditions from which they come. Modules are not
necessarily sequential and can be taken in any order.
Courses are offered at
a variety of locations.
Course times are:
Friday 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. and from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Saturday
and Sunday. Pre-requisite: Mr. Khalsa’s Herbal Medicine Chest Series, or equivalent experience. Students taking this
program will gain knowledge and skills in the following areas
This course prepares students to pass the entrance examination for professional membership in the professional association for herbalists, the American Herbalists Guild. Fall Module
Winter Module
Spring Module
This is an excellent and
well organized program. Mr.
Khalsa demonstrates depth in his knowledge of herbs and alternative
medicines. The content of the
course is appropriate to either lay persons or experienced medical
clinicians as myself. His
teaching skills are superb, in fact I would recommend him to teach nursing
and medical students. I have
been able to incorporate the use of herbal medicines into my regular
clinical practice, when appropriate, as a result of this course. David Overton, PA-C, RN This is a highly informative and
educational course. The
students gain not only expertise, but also confidence and experience in
the proper use of medicinal herbs.
By the end of the three quarter course, the students are qualified
to open a professional practice, teach, consult, or work in other fields
related to herbal medicine.
Sandra C. Buskirk I have the extreme
pleasure to make an unqualified recommendation for Mr. K.P.S. Khalsa, as a
lecturer on herbal medicines.
I have the pleasure to be presently taking a class from Mr. Khalsa
for certification as an herbalist.
While his lectures are grounded in his extensive clinical
background, I find his knowledge of anatomy, physiology and current
research to be superb. My
experience with Mr. Khalsa over the last six months has been nothing short
of very exciting for me. Jim Perry,
MSN, ARNP
