President’s Message
Our March newsletter begins with Congratulations to Humber Polytechnic on the approval of their Bachelor of Science in Traditional Chinese Medicine & Acupuncture. This B.Sc-TCMA is the first of its kind in Ontario.
Speaking of schools, TCMO believes that outreach to students while they are in school is beneficial to their success in practice after graduation and essential to the future of the profession. TCMO offers many benefits to students and new grads, and we have been arranging meetings in schools to introduce TCMO.
