The College organises clinical study visits to well established hospitals in China for practitioners of acupuncture or Chinese herbal medicine. These trips provide graduates with a valuable opportunity to find out more about the way Chinese medicine is currently practised in its country of origin.
The popularity and value of our programme of continuing professional development (CPD) events is well established. Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine practitioners from this and other colleges come to Reading to develop their knowledge and meet their peers.
