GENERAL QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
When do the courses begin? Can I start at any time?
Since the
Global College of Natural Medicine is an independent-study
school, you may begin at any time.
What if I need help or have a question?
You can call or
e-mail our support staff and we will have an answer for you
within 24 hours. You can also utilize our student forum.
How are tests and exams administered?
All GCNM
courses are offered through distance learning. Students will be
sent all necessary study materials, including books,
case-studies, questionnaires, study guides, reference charts,
videotapes and/or audiocassettes. Each lesson is followed by a
test to chart the student's progress. These tests are designed
for self-evaluation and do not need to be sent in for grading.
At the end of each course there's a final exam, a set of case
studies to complete, and other assignments such as making herbal
remedies or writing research papers, that need to be sent in for
grading. An 80% passing grade is required to obtain a
Certificate in your chosen field. The exams are "open book"
exams that will challenge the student to re-study areas they
haven't yet mastered.
What kind of educational background do I need?
Applicants must have a High School Diploma or Equivalent.
Students who do
not hold High School Diploma or Equivalent will be required to
pass a basic entrance exam that will demonstrate their knowledge
of English and basic Math skills. The entrance exam consist of
25 questions and you must obtain 60%. To request a hard copy,
