Delivery of the Courses:

  •   The Three Treasures School of TCM approach to training is student-centred

  • Students will be given home study assignments to reinforce much of the theoretical content of the course covered at the weekends

  • Support for home study is available through email or telephone

  • Practical content will be under the supervision of the Tutor and will normally take place over six weekends

  • All students are expected to keep a Journal recording a daily account of their learning activities and their development in the practice of TCM

  • Supervision takes place in the two months after the end of the main part of the course.

 

ASSESSMENT

  The assessment of student progress will be based mainly on a continuous process throughout the course.  Our School approach is to make this process as transparent and stress-free as possible.   An assessment and feedback, multiple-choice question paper is part of each weekend.  It enables the students to be aware of their own progress and any areas of study that need particular attention.

Assessment and feedback of the practical content of the course is an ongoing process each weekend with tests on the last weekend of the course.  Students are given a clear indication of the standards that they need to reach..

  To obtain the award of the Three Treasures School of TCM Certificate & Diploma Medical Qigong:

·         Students must have attained marks of at least 60%of the total possible marks in each assessed module and in Supervision assignments.   Students may apply for re-assessment of any module in which they fail to achieve the required standard.

·         Students must have attended at least 80% of the weekend sessions at the Centre

 

Course Timing

The courses follow a similar pattern as the Tui Na Certificate and Diploma courses - they take place on one weekend per month and share common TCM Modules.

(Note: Qualified TCM and Tuina practitioners may be exempt from some of the core studies and need to attend only one day each weekend per month)
