Frequently Asked Questions
We offer the most comprehensive Homeopathic education available in Ontario and across Canada. Founded in 1994 by classical homeopath, Raymond Edge, what truly sets our school apart is our dedication to training students in pure Hahnemannian Homeopathy, with the best clinical training, and in accordance with the founding scientific principles of this amazing system of medicine. We are so proud of our proven track record, and enjoy the status of being North America’s longest running Homeopathic College in over one hundred years – in fact we are now in our 22nd year.
CCHM is one of the top schools in all of North America. We have graduates practicing and students currently studying with us from different countries all over the world.
Our program of study meets or exceeds the parameters for both the theoretical and clinical components as required by the College of Homeopaths of Ontario (CHO) which is the regulatory body for the homeopathic profession in this province. We are recognized and approved by the College of Homeopaths of Ontario.
In addition we are the only Canadian Homeopathic School accredited by the Accreditation Commission for Homeopathic Education in North America (ACHENA) – the only accrediting body that exists for homeopathic education. Please read, Understanding Independent Accreditation, for more information on the importance of independent accreditation.
We pride ourselves on presenting a solid foundation steeped in the tradition of the old masters of homeopathy, and on intensive hands-on clinical training. Our clinical internship model is unique in homeopathic education today. It is important to us that our students learn and fully understand the fundamentals as specified in the Organon of Medicine so that what they see and hear in the classroom is fully supported in the classic literature and is consistently reproducible in the clinic. We offer a comprehensive three-year program that has produced hundreds of graduates in our history as Canada’s longest-running homeopathic medical school, established in 1994. Our longevity speaks to our success in providing the most thorough, relevant and enjoyable training.
To enrol at CCHM you must fill out our application form and enclose a $85 application fee, along with 2 letters of reference; one personal and one professional. Include a personal life sketch (expanded resume) and an essay on “why I want to be a homeopath.” We also need your most recent transcripts from post-secondary educational institutions that you have attended. Two academic years of Post-Secondary Education is required for application into our Homeopathy and Health Sciences Diploma Program. Once this is all received an interview with our Director of Admissions or Registrar will be set up in person or by phone. Upon satisfactory completion of your application and interview, an acceptance letter will be mailed to you.
In the Teaching Clinic, during years 2 and 3 of the Diploma Program, students shadow master homeopaths with a combined experience of over 45 years. Clinic days offer you the opportunity to see firsthand, how experts deal with the challenges and successes of clinical practice. Dr. Joe Kellerstein and Monica Frohmann provide in-depth guidance and discussion about homeopathic case taking and case management in an intimate setting, while live patients receive the considerate and individualized care that homeopathic treatment is known for. CCHM holds the highest standards of clinical training for our students and our faculty andstaff are second to none. By attending our Teaching Clinic, you have the opportunity to shadow Master homeopaths in a thought-provoking, inspiring and nurturing environment.
Homeopathy is an art and science of practice, as well as study. For this reason, it is of the utmost importance to gain hands-on experience as part of your homeopathic training. This is the purpose of the Externship portion of CCHM’s Clinical Training, when you take on your own patients, and begin to practice homeopathy with one-on-one supervision from a professional homeopath. Our Clinical Training model offers a great deal of flexibility so that you can begin to build your future homeopathic practice right in your own area. You are also welcome to join a roster for patient referrals, should you wish to receive patients through CCHM. Upon graduation, the patients you have treated form the basis of your professional practice.
Governmental financial assistance (e.g. Ontario Student Assistance Plan, OSAP) for students of homeopathy is not available.
In the absence of governmental financial assistance, CCHM offers installment plans to ease the financial burden for students. Some students have obtained loans from their personal financial institutions. Students typically work to support themselves and this is the reason for part-time weekend classes.
