Standards & Competencies

Jan 3, 2022 - Feb 18, 2022


Call-to-Action to Participate in Standards and Competencies Public Comment Period

 

This is an important communication to the North American homeopathy community for the formal review of our shared STANDARDS FOR HOMEOPATHIC EDUCATION AND COMPETENCIES FOR THE PROFESSIONAL HOMEOPATHIC PRACTICE IN NORTH AMERICA (S&C). The purpose of this formal process is to update the previous 2013 edition of the document. 


A Public Comment Period affording all interested parties an opportunity to share their comments on proposed updates to the S&C document begins on January 3, 2022 and ends at the end of day on February 18, 2022. Directions for submitting comments are outlined below.


The S&C is a critical document that guides the professional homeopathy community in North America. To remain current, the S&C document should be updated every 7-10 years. This document guides and supports accreditation and certification used to inform the development of high quality, professional homeopaths through establishing and agreeing upon minimum requirements for education and the assessment of readiness to practice.


Since the publication of the 2013 edition of the S&C, formal and informal evidence has emerged of minor omissions and some significant professional changes that require a quality assurance review.


A steering committee made up of representatives from CHC, ACHENA, NASH and HNA has prepared the terms of reference and outlined the process and phases of the review to take place. 


  • The phases of the project are as follows:
