Training for Practitioners

I provide a range of training courses for acupuncturists and herbalists to help them develop their professional expertise and their business skills. In 2019 I launched the Fertility Support Training online platform to make my training courses available to practitioners around the world.

 

The Advanced Level Diploma in Fertility Acupuncture

After many years of trialing and refining my work, and in response to the demand for more advanced training for acupuncture practitioners in treating fertility issues, I developed an Advanced Level Diploma in Fertility Acupuncture in 2017. This was delivered at both the UK’s International College of Oriental Medicine and the Northern College of Acupuncture. The Diploma course was in such high demand from practitioners all over the world that in 2019 I developed an online version of the Diploma so that the knowledge and skills of the Advanced Level Diploma will be available to practitioners everywhere.

The five courses that make up the Diploma are now internationally recognised, with practitioners in the United States, Australia and New Zealand all able to earn continuing education credits by taking the courses. The courses can be purchased individually or together (with a 10% discount).

“I started Naava’s course feeling fairly confident as a fertility practitioner, but I completed it feeling like I’d reached a significant new level of practice. The depth of knowledge she instills is more than worth the investment but on top of that you complete the course with a community of practitioners with whom you can refer to for advice and knowledge, meaning the benefits from the course continue far beyond the study sessions.”

 

Mastermind Courses

Having used the “mastermind” system of peer-support to address my own challenges and develop my business, I wanted to offer a facilitated process that brings together the mastermind system with my own mentoring experience in TCM and well-proven support to improve business skills.

In 2019 I recruited the first cohort for my first Rising Stars Mastermind course. Through the course of the year we’ve worked together to help each member of the group identify the unique challenges which were holding them back.  Through my facilitation and peer-support from the group, they have found new strategies to develop themselves and their practices.

In 2020 I launched a new Mastermind programme for newer practitioners or those who were still in the early stages of building their practice. This Mastermind covered both clinical and business skills. I also launched an Expert Mastermind programme to take graduates of the Rising Stars programme to the next level.

I’ve been delighted with the amazing people who have come through the Mastermind programmes and in 2021 will be launching with three new cohorts and an additional facilitator, Hannah Pearn.

One-to-One Mentoring

I also provide one-to-one mentoring for practitioners to develop their technical knowledge and business skills. Mentoring sessions are done in-person or via Skype/Zoom and can cover acupuncture, herbs, marketing or general business skills.

 

Lecturing

I have lectured on specific areas of treating fertility with Traditional Chinese Medicine in workshops around the UK and conferences around the world. For some recent highlights you can see a list on this page.
