About the College of Traditional Acupuncture

Situations Vacant

CTA is one of Europe’s most established acupuncture colleges. Established in the 1960s by JR Worsley, it now operates from a tranquil setting at Haseley Manor in Britain’s Warwickshire countryside, and offers a BA in Traditional Acupuncture, validated by Oxford Brookes University (OBU) and accredited by the British Acupuncture Accreditation Board (BAAB), as well as a modular postgraduate programme (PG Cert, PG Dip, and an MA Masters degree in Traditional Acupuncture), also validated by OBU.

The college is currently undergoing a period of renewal, consolidation and expansion. Most of the following posts, previously temporary roles, are now being advertised as permanent academic appointments that will help lead CTA to its next stage of development in offering an authentic and comprehensive education in traditional acupuncture.
