The E-learning Course offered by the IACH contains all the necessary knowledge to provide a solid foundation towards becoming a good homeopath. So our Diploma certifies knowledge but does not automatically give one the right to practice homeopathy. Students must comply with the laws and regulations of their respective country. As these laws are varied around the world, the responsibility for that research falls to the interested student.
The right for participation in the Diploma examinations is extended to all those who have the legal right to practice homeopathy in their respective country.
For Greek residents, the right for participation in the Diploma examinations is extended to all Medical Doctors, Dentists and Veterinary Doctors.
All other students will receive a Certificate of Attendance.
