Requirements:

How many hours of continued education do I need per year to fulfill the IHA requirements?

Hahnemann College’s Summer, Winter, and Fall School is worth six hours per day of attendance.Attendance at Medical Heilkunst-related conferences, or completion of assignments based on study recordings. Attendance at IHA-sponsored Practitioner Meetings, or completion of assessments based on tapings of such sessions

2. Enrollment in other programs, studies or courses

3. Book reviews, articles and approved research on Heilkunst-related issues

CPR and First Aid requirements

The IHA strongly recommends the completion of a First Aid and CPR course, which should be updated as required upon expiry. The more beneficial course is First Aid that also includes infant CPR and defibrillation. However, the decision is up to the member, as to which course is more beneficial. For the practitioners who are DAHH members, we strongly encourage you to familiarize yourself with the animal CPR procedures, which you can find at animal CPR.
