Students from Healthcare or non Healthcare Backgrounds


We have students from varied backgrounds both Medical and non medical. Our training assumes no prior Chinese Medicine knowledge and start from the ground up, with each lesson building on from the lesson before.

 

Unique E-Learning Platform


To support our taught and clinical teaching sessions, we have developed a unique E Learning platform through virtual classrooms. Foundation students are registered with their protected username and password and log in to their classroom, to study, discuss, access tutor advice, revise, research and complete online tasks. Online learning includes webinairs, video, pod cast and a variety of multi media. This forms part of a blend of learning, using online, face to face lectures, practical and clinical sessions in our campus at Marino Institute Dublin 9.
