Registration for 2024 has closed; next opportunity to enroll will be August 2025.
Join us for a series of 10 online presentations on foundational concepts of Anthroposophic Medicine (AM). Whether you are a newcomer or already familiar with AM, this series will provide new insights into nature, physiology, illness and therapy. Using the Dutch Training Manual as a guide, we will cover topics such as the philosophical foundations of Anthroposophy, methods of developing dynamic perception, structural morphology, projective geometry, the typology of illness, principles of Anthroposophic pharmacy, and more!
This lecture series is a prerequisite for entering into the PAAM Clinical Mentoring Program (CMP) as a pathway toward certification in AM, but it is also helpful for all clinicians interested in learning more about the Anthroposophic approach to healing!
Registration is open to all licensed prescribers (MD/DO, ND, NP, PA, DDS and Pharmacists), as well as currently-enrolled students of these disciplines.
The series includes 10 online lectures as follows. Recordings will be posted to the online course archive for easy review at participants' leisure, though live attendance is strongly encouraged, so please mark your calendar.
Dates below are for 2024-2025. Dates for 2025-2026 will be posted Summer 2025.
