A. Yes, you will save a considerable amount of money because you will be able to treat yourself and your family for a large number of conditions using herbal remedies you’ve made yourself. Even if you have to purchase ready made herbal remedies you will still have considerable savings.

Q. Is The Home Herbalist course difficult to do?


A.
No, it’s not difficult at all. Although the course is very thorough it has been designed in such a way that the text is easily understood and there are diagrams explaining the content where necessary. However, if the student is having difficulty in understanding anything they can email the tutor for help. The Home Herbalist staff is dedicated to the teaching of home herbalism so the student will have support whenever it is needed.

Q. What qualification does The Home Herbalist certificate course offer?

A. The certificate students receive after completion of this herbalist course is a certificate of competency in home herbalism, which means they are qualified in home herbalism to treat themselves, their families, and pets for many common conditions.  The certificate, as with many other certificates does not give students the qualification needed to be a practitioner of herbal medicine, medical herbalist or any other professional modality. However, much of the course content is what is taught to students studying to be a professional herbalist.

Q. Does The Home Herbalist certificate course lead to a diploma or degree in medical or professional herbalism?

A. Should those who complete The Home Herbalist course decide to further their studies to become a professional herbalist, the institute they choose may consider the course as recognized prior learning but in doing so they would need to see the full course content and make an assessment.
