A very warm welcome to CTA - the College of Traditional Acupuncture in Warwick, in the UK.
From May 2010, we are no longer enrolling unergraduate students and are instead concentrating on supporting existing students until 2012, alongside offering CPD courses.
Amidst transformative times in the wider world, our focus for these two years is to assure the high quality of the education that we provide our students is sustained, as our wider community considers the role acupuncture can play in healthcare in the UK.
Over the coming months, we will be profiling (primarily on our blog) the innovative work of our third year students as they have begun a new phase of clinical placements in the community, as well as introducing some of the excellent research into acupuncture that our students are undertaking, and offering these as seeds and catalysts to the future.
Paul Hougham, Principal.
