  • Complementary Medicines Interactions Guide (CMIG)

Online delivery

Our approach is straightforward – complete the modules (allow 20 minutes per module) and learn how to apply your knowledge during a 2-hour pre-recorded masterclass. This means you can move through the entire CMEd Certification at your own pace.
