Terms and Conditions
Admission. Admission to the course is subject to an interview. You will be assessed as to whether you are ready and sufficiently self-motivated and committed to take on this style of intense study.
Assessment. In order to complete the training we require evidence that you have understood and documented your learning in the classroom and that you are clinically competent and safe to practice. Please be sure to have read the assessment requirements for all four modules on our website before signing this application form.
Qualification. After successful completion of the training, you will be awarded the “Licentiate in Five-Element Acupuncture (Lic.Ac.)” certificate that meets the necessary entry requirements for membership of the Acupuncture Regulatory Authority (ARA). On completion of the training, you have covered all of the required material and been adequately supervised in practice to safely and confidently enter the profession.
Regulation. The ‘Licentiate in Five-Element Acupuncture' is a private arrangement between the provider, Yellow Path LLP and the student. We are a member of the Acupuncture Regulatory Authority (ARA). All students must take full responsibility for their own study and keep abreast of any changes in statutory regulation in the future. There is no statutory regulation of acupuncture in the UK, but you will be required to register with your local authority unless you are exempt through BAF membership. This is because of the risk of blood-borne infections from piercing the skin with acupuncture needles. The same rules also cover tattooing and body piercing. The local authority must also ensure it has by laws that govern the cleanliness of the acupuncture premises, practitioners, instruments, materials and equipment.
Fees and Payment Schedule.
Tuition for entire training - £17,950.00
Payment Schedule. On acceptance to the course a non-refundable deposit of £2,693.00 is required to secure your place. The balance (£15,257.00) is spread over 24 monthly payments of £635.00 payable from the course start-date.

Important! Once you have paid your deposit, you are committing to the cost of the entire programme (£17,950.00) regardless of whether you complete the training.
