Dear Joelle, nice to receive your message,
About the internship, we will arrange the student to take clinical practice in the hospitals attached the academy in Beijing, China, after the student finish the studying of courses they selected and pass the relevant exams. The mode of internship is to take the clinical practice in the morning and classroom lecture in the afternoon. In general, the student will take four weeks for the internship, but it is flexible the student can shorten or prolong the duration based on his/her time and financial condition. The internship fee is about US$ 300 for each week, which does not include the accommodation and travel fee. The accommodation fee is about US$ 30.00 for a standard room each day. In general, we will hold twice regular internship each year separate in May and September. The duration of the internship is four weeks (about one month). If the student could not attend the regular internship class we will arrange a special class for him/her based on him/her time condition, however the tuition fee will be more expensive, US$400 per week.
About the credit of the training program, as you know the distance training program is sponsored by the Training Center of China Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, which is the top stated institute on traditional Chinese medicine in China, and has a high credit at home and abroad with its 50 years history and over 4000 staffer. However, each county has own laws and regulations for the registered acupuncturist, I think the student need to attend the examination of licensed acupuncturist in his area and state if he want to be the legal practitioner on Chinese medicine and acupuncture, for example, the individual need to apply the examination for the licensed acupuncturist issued by NCCAOM or the State Association of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine in America, but it is fact that the students can learn more the knowledge and technique on Chinese medicine and acupuncture with less time and money from our distance training program. It doesn't matter what level of certification you can get, the knowledge and skills acquired are yours, is that right?
