Letter from the Principal (Mission Statement)
Oshio
College of Acupuncture and Herbology
(Canadian-Pacific College of Traditional Chinese
Medicine & Acupuncture) was established in 1999. We
are registered with the Private Post-Secondary
Education Commission of British Columbia (PPSEC),
and recognized by the College of Traditional Chinese
Medicine Practitioner and Acupuncturists of British
Columbia (CTCMA). In 2001 Oshio College was
accredited by PPSEC, and designated as an “eligible
college” by the British Columbia Student Assistance
Program.
We provide 3, 4 and 5
year programs which are constantly being reviewed
and improved to ensure we meet and exceed the
requirements of the CTCMA. It is also our objective
to provide our students with the highest possible
standard of theoretical knowledge and clinical
experience of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) so
all students will be successful in their TCM
careers.
We regularly review
our programs to ensure they meet the United States
NCCAOM requirements for those planning to practice
in the U.S.A. Oshio College is the FIRST Canadian
school of oriental medicine on the list,
“Institutions Evaluated by AACRAO” (American
Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions
Officers). This allows our students to write
the U.S.A. license examinations and practice
internationally. See
www.nccaom.org
for more information.
Oshio college has two
sister schools. The first school is Atlantic
Institute of Oriental Medicine (ATOM) located in
Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA. Credits earned at our
college are recognized by the institute.
There, you may study TCM for one academic year and
receive your Bachelor Degree of Science and Masters
Degree of Oriental Medicine. In order to do this
you need to have three-years of TCM education in our
college and have two years or more of post-secondary
education background before you are enrolled into
our college.
The second sister school is Hunan University of
Traditional Chinese Medicine located in Changsha,
China. If you wish to spend your last school year
in China studying and practicing TCM, you may go
there.
With a highly
qualified and very experienced team of instructors,
smaller class settings, ocean and mountain view
classrooms, and a very high success rate with
student satisfaction, we are sure that you will
reach your goal while attending our college.
We warmly welcome you
in joining us to support, improve and care for
human health.
Dr. Ganglin Yin
Principal
