3 Year Licentiate in Acupuncture

Our in-depth three year course will teach you everything you need to know to become a confident and successful practitioner. The total numbers of hours studied are 3,600, making this degree-level training. You may find that for personal reasons you need to take a study break; this is completely acceptable as long as you complete all of your modules within five years. Unlike training at a university, all of your lectures will be delivered by successful practitioners who are eager to pass their knowledge and experience on to you.

Our academic team have trained literally hundreds of acupuncturists and they work hard to make sure that what you learn you is up-to-date and relevant to the work of an acupuncturist. Although the BAAB is the accrediting body, your Licentiate Diploma in Acupuncture will be awarded by The City College of Acupuncture. The final level of the award is known academically as Level 6, the same Level as a BSc (Hons).

The City College of Acupuncture is an integral part of The City College which was established in 1979. The City College of Acupuncture has its own website to enable prospective students to find us easily and to give insight into the specific requirements of studying and practicing acupuncture.

Our key lecturers have all known and worked with each other for years and leaped at the chance to put together the course that they wish they had all studied on! With a few hand-picked new faces to keep the curriculum fresh, they have created a course that has a keen focus on both clinical and business skills. Our aim is to train successful practitioners.
