Entry requirement:
Our courses in Homeopathy are accessible for all and we encourage a diversity of ages and backgrounds.

You will need to be over 18 and have gained either the standard entry requirements (if you are coming to us straight from A levels) or be able to give us satisfactory evidence of your life and work experience (if you are coming in as a mature student). Our students come to study Homeopathy at CHE from a variety of backgrounds and have a variety of qualifications. Some of our students already have a degree and some a practitioner training in another field.

Time commitment for each of the following: (contact time, study time and clinical training)
For full time practitioner training, classes take place two days a week for 3 years. For part-time practitioner training, classes take place one weekend a month for four years.

You can expect to spend up to 15-20 hours per month studying and completing assignments. This is likely to go up in the later stages of the course towards graduation.

For the Part Time Course, in the second and third (fourth) years of training there is an additional one day a week where students complete their clinical experience. This is either a Friday or another Saturday during the month.

Course Information

What do you consider to be the main strengths of your course?

The Centre for Homeopathic Education (CHE) is the largest school of homeopathy in the UK. We run courses for those who would like to become homeopaths – these are degree or licentiate level courses. We offer training for every level of interest – short courses for beginners and CPD for qualified and practicing homeopaths.
• CHE has been in existence since 1998, having trained hundreds of homeopaths in the UK and overseas.
• We are the only college of homeopathy in the UK to offer a degree qualification, in partnership with Middlesex University.
• As a graduate of the full-time or part-time BSc course you’re awarded a BSc (Hons) in Homeopathy, validated by Middlesex University. In addition you get a Licentiate (a licence to practice) which CHE awards. You’re entitled to use BSc (Hons) LCHE after your name.
• We are the only school of homeopathy in the UK accredited by the Quality Assurance Agency (QAA). This is the highest level of accreditation an institution of higher education can receive in the UK.
• CHE is an international community with schools in New York and Budapest.
• Our teachers and staff are all qualified homeopaths with many years of experience in practice and in teaching.

What different learning styles are offered and how are they supported?

At the beginning of the course students are taught study skills by our academic support team where they learn how to take detailed notes, use mind maps effectively and paraphrase verbal and written information. They learn how to present written assessments demonstrating ability to reference written materials, to use Standard English appropriately and to use computer and numeric skills.

Our courses comprise of lectures and face-to-face learning. Our teachers have different teaching styles and will use Video, PowerPoint presentations or even music in their lectures. Also students may work in small groups on a particular area of discussion. There is also ample opportunity for self-study, and regular assignments and exams help us to assess student progress. For more advanced students, part of their training is to attend student clinics, where they get experience of giving homeopathic treatment, under expert supervision.

We offer full academic and pastoral support to students on a face-to-face basis, or by email or phone when necessary.

We are also starting to offer webinar-style training to support classes, as well as for alumni of our college.

How is clinical training delivered and when do students start to see patients?

We regard clinical training to be a fundamental part of your course. This is where you put theory into practice. It’s an exciting and challenging part of your homeopathic training and it’s where your transformation from student to homeopath occurs.
Clinical training takes place at the world famous Neal’s Yard, Covent Garden in central London and all prescriptions are dispensed by Helios Pharmacy. All our student clinics are busy, which means you gain the expertise and confidence to work with a wide range of patients and their healthcare needs. Observing how a patient progresses to better health and wellbeing provides an excellent foundation for future practice.

Full time course
You’re introduced to clinic in the first term of your second year: you’ll observe case taking by experienced clinicians and participate in case analysis and prescribing.
In your second semester you progress too active case-taking, prescribing and case management under the supervision of the supervising clinician. This work continues and expands into your third year.

Part time course
You’re introduced to clinic in the second term of your second year: you’ll observe case taking and participate in case analysis and prescribing.
In your third year you progress too active case-taking, prescribing and case management under the supervision of the supervising clinician. This work continues and expands into your fourth year.

How are students supported during their training and beyond?

Students have access to academic, clinical and pastoral care during their training. Following training we have a growing community participating in online training in the form of webinars, Post graduate courses, a closed face book page for alumni, as well as an open CHE face book forum where the community help each other. We also have graduate circles twice a year where Alumni are invited to get together to share experiences and maintain the links with the faculty.

How do students develop the skills to balance and maintain their own health and wellbeing, whilst functioning as an effective practitioner?

These skills are taught and explored as part of the whole course, with two modules dedicated to practitioner development. Part of the assessment process includes submission of an end of year portfolio containing a self-reflection diary of both clinical and personal reflections occurring during the academic year. In addition there is academic and pastoral support, class group work as well as an encouragement to set up peer support outside the school teaching days. We also have graduates that visit the teaching days offering support who have completed the course and are now are experienced practitioners.

How is progress assessed?

At the beginning of every academic year students are provided with an assessment calendar clearly outlining assessment dates. There is usually one assessment given per month. The BSc (Hons) programmes have an academic focus and therefore exams are required to assess your progress. Other assessments are written, oral and practical. Assessments for the Licentiate courses do follow the above format but tend to be more vocational towards the last year of the course.

How are your teachers supported and enabled to teach well?

Our teachers have many years of experience both in the UK and internationally. We provide the state of the art teaching facilities in our campuses allowing for different teaching styles. We provide peer support amongst the staff and offer internal and external staff training. We involve our teachers on all issues within the school especially in curriculum design and hold regular faculty meetings. We also encourage them to teach what they feel passionate about or areas of expertise in order to provide a rich and inspiring educational experience for both the teachers and the students.

Is there anything else you would like to add?

If you love helping people, and you’re considering becoming a homeopath, you’ve come to the right place.

Our approach is unique – we’ll train you in an integrated style of homeopathy, which combines classical and practical approaches. Our degree courses are validated by Middlesex University, and all our practitioner courses are fully accredited by the Society of Homeopaths. This means you can be sure you’re getting excellent training to set you up to be a homeopath.
In addition to receiving your academic training, you’ll get the chance to work with patients who present with complex physical, psychological and emotional pathology as part of your training.
