Biological Medicine for Practitioners is for professionals working in the health and healthcare industries who wish to evolve their practice through the integration of Biological Medicine (BioMed). BioMed offers an innovative and holistic perspective on health and patient care as well as a range of diagnostic technologies and therapies not commonly utilized in conventional medicine. Through participation in all the online and in-person components of this course, attendees will gain foundational knowledge and understanding of biological medicine; well-rounded, hands-on experience with diagnostics and therapies; and the coaching support required to take patient care to the next level.

This course is for health and healthcare professionals including Naturopathic Doctors, Medical Doctors, Registered Nurses, Functional Medicine Doctors and Practitioners, Dentists, Dietitians, Therapists, Massage Therapists, Acupuncturists, Health Coaches, Nutritionists, Fitness Instructors, and others working in related capacities.

If applicable, healthcare providers and/or technicians who work in the same organization/clinic/practice as the initial registrant and who wish to attend can register at the same time at the reduced rate of $1,500 per each additional registrant.

A professional learning program, this Course is offered in order to improve practitioners’ knowledge and skill base. This certificate does not take the place of a medical license or similar credential required by a licensing or regulatory agency.

Biological Medicine for Practitioners is both online AND in-person. Before attending the in-person training, you must complete a series of 4-6 lectures and assignments online (total = four hours). Then, during the in-person component you will develop greater familiarity with diagnostics and therapies and the skills required to successfully integrate these into effective case management. You will be asked to identify which in-person event you plan to attend at check-out. Once enrolled, the four-hour pre-course material will be added to your dashboard. Please complete the online Introduction to Biological Medicine prerequisite first.
