Diploma in Acupuncture - Traditional Chinese Medicine

Graduates can go immediately into practice as an acupuncturist, using traditional Chinese Medicine-based clinical diagnosis and treatment techniques that are effective, safe and appropriate and consider contraindications. Graduates also qualify for the National Diploma in Acupuncture (Level 7). Graduates may continue on to a bachelor degree at Liaoning College.

The New Zealand College of Chinese Medicine (NZCCM) is registered and accredited by NZQA. The College was founded on the realisation that Acupuncture and Chinese herbal training in New Zealand have been developed well but would be improved with greater input from Chinese-trained professionals and courses more closely related to the standard syllabus used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) colleges and universities. Such practices have been developed, tried and proven over thousands of years.
