From the Office of Student and Graduate Affairs
As I contemplated CCNH’s 25th anniversary, I began asking myself, “What are we celebrating?” We are celebrating the people—those who founded both of the original schools and the herb company, those who write the coursework, brainstorm the programs, grade the tests, enroll and work with students, and the list goes on. But mostly it is the students—the thousands of students that Clayton College has educated over the years.
Our annual conference is an opportunity to highlight some of these students who have graduated and are now joining us as teachers. Five of the speakers scheduled at this year’s conference are CCNH graduates— Ann Louise Gittleman and Kim Dalzell are graduates of the PhD in Holistic Nutrition program; Denise LaMothe graduated from the Doctor of Holistic Health program (which is no longer offered); and, Linda Page and I are graduates from the original ND program.
Those of us who have been involved with CCNH for many years have witnessed the field of traditional naturopathy emerge, blossom, and expand. The standards of practice for the professionals in this field have evolved and continue to stretch to meet the demands of those interested in truly improving their health. Recently, we learned of a designation for traditional naturopaths that will surely become the hallmark of all practitioners in this field. “CTN,” which is the Certified Traditional Naturopath designation now offered by the American Naturopathic Certification Board, will become known far and wide as the credential for professionals in this newly recognized arena.
Join us and be a part of the global family we call Clayton College of Natural Health.
