STAGES OF LEARNING
The Professional Diploma of Acupuncture and Moxibustion course at Ongiara College
is divided into four academic years over 37 calendar months. Students
attend 6 consecutive days per month for the first 24 months, then 2-3 days
a week for 50 weeks. The course is a progressive journey of development:
studying, gathering practical skills, widening one’s inner senses,
questioning, exploring, understanding, reflecting, owning all material and
translating the above into professional practice and knowing-how. All
students in a class study together through the whole program, following a
continuous flow of topics which build on and deepen previous experience.
- The first academic year concentrates on the regulatory movements
of Nature, the manifestation of health and the qualities of the
master practitioner.
- The second academic year focuses on how humans often struggle
in living their lives and so accrue internal, external or miscellaneous
causes of disease. Through diagnosis and minimal intervention,
the practitioner is able to assist the person, at all levels
of bodymindspirit, to return to regulation.
- The third academic year refines the skills of the practitioner,
as educator as well as physician, becoming him/herself an instrument
along with the tools of acupuncture and moxibustion.
- The fourth academic year equips practitioners to move from
the safe environment of the college out into the world, with
confidence, with competence, with delight, with compassion, deeply
rooted in the magic of Nature which will sustain them as they
serve themselves, their patients and their communities.
