Accreditation & Recognition

Choosing a homeopathy course is an important decision, and it's natural to want reassurance that your qualification will be recognised and respected. At the School of Homeopathy, our courses are designed to meet the high standards expected by professional organisations in the UK and internationally, giving you confidence in the quality of your education.

Today, the School of Homeopathy is the only homeopathy school in the world to hold accreditation in the UK, the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Our Practitioner Course is fully accredited for both attendance and home study, giving students around the world confidence that they are studying a rigorous, high-quality programme.

Even if we do not currently hold formal accreditation in your own country, a qualification from the School is recognised for its depth, academic quality and extensive clinical training - and you can still join one of the registers in the UK. Our graduates go on to establish successful practices and help patients with confidence, compassion and professionalism.
