If you make choices that are based on secondary factors rather than primary factors then you are likely to end up on the wrong course. The problem is people think all colleges are basically the same and therefore base their decisions on secondary factors such as location, venue, reputation, cost, individual tutors, friends etc.

Remember that choosing the wrong college and having to change can be expensive – training to be a homeopath can cost in excess of £10,000 and wasting a year on the wrong course will not only demotivate you but be expensive as well.

Our suggestion is that you get clear what your primary motivation is and then look at the secondary factors to help you decide between specific colleges.

There are three primary questions you should be asking yourself.

1) ‘Do I want a successful career as a Homeopath’

2) Do I just want to get a degree and homeopathy looks interesting?

3) Will this particular course suit me and my learning and career needs?

Whats your primary motivation - if it is

1) I want a successful career as a Homeopath’

then your first option should be to look at a practical based vocational course where your experience is taken into account and you start to see patients early on – the only real way to become a successful practitioner.

Prospective students are often confused about approaches to homeopathy – many colleges only cover the so called ‘classical’ method’ which is a bit like having a mechanic who can only work on Smart cars – there are only two colleges in the UK who provide a genuine practical training – one in North London and one in Birmingham.
