Like all schools of this class and type, we are multi-professionally accredited.

You can view our accreditations on our home page under 'Accreditations & Affiliations.' Schools that teach natural, functional, holistic, nutritional, and botanical medicine are only eligible for professional accreditation, not regional, which is the type of accreditation you'll see at conventional colleges.

Schools that teach natural, functional, holistic, nutritional, and botanical medicine are only eligible for professional accreditation versus regional, a type of accreditation you'll see at conventional colleges.

Regional accreditation qualifies educators for government funding and allows them to accept FAFSA and GI Bill. Professionally accredited educators cannot offer or receive these types of educational funding and grants.

We offer open enrollment in all of our holistic doctorates and practice minors. When you enroll, you'll immediately access all our programs and can explore and audit them as you wish.

Our programs were designed for personal and professional enrichment.

Our student body comprises lay persons, holistic providers, and licensed medical professionals, from LPNs to physicians to stay-at-home moms, with some college to high school graduates who want an educational and career track slightly off the beaten path. 

Our programs range in price.

A single holistic doctorate is $2,222, and the tri-doctorate, which allows you to choose 3 of any 5 holistic doctorate modalities, is $4,444. 

Most holistic educators charge 4-6K for a single natural health program in naturopathy or herbalism, but at Rockwell, you can study natural and botanical medicine much more affordably.

Functional educators (those teaching functional blood chemistry analysis) charge 5-11K for a single modality; some even bill you $75 for every lab you order. 

Most don't offer lifetime access or require payment to access student groups and upgrades, depending on the educator. We're the total opposite. 

We believe you deserve lifetime access when you invest that much into something.

We believe you deserve free access to student / peer groups, not having to pay $75 for every lab you want to order, and free access to upgrades.

Because our programs are 1/3 of those of other holistic educators, we don't offer scholarships, but we do offer tuition payment plans through Afterpay, which has interest-free options.

If you don't qualify for Afterpay, that's no problem. We get it.

Simply contact us for a custom invoice.

The only difference is that you won't get the active sales or discounted pricing (where applicable).

The price for a single holistic doctorate will be $2549 instead of $2,222 (a $327 difference), with monthly tuition payments of $212.41.

The Tri-Doctorate would normally be $4,000, but on a custom invoice, it's $4,444 (a $444 difference) with a monthly invoice of $370.33.

Feel free to call in and get help with this, but remember that when you enroll in a stand-alone doctorate or the tri-doctorate, you'll have access to all of our educational offerings to choose the right ones. You'll be free to roam and audit any content you wish or change your course of study at will.

Yes!

Holistic providers are eligible for clinical practice insurance, board certification, and licensure; however, these are not required. 

We provide all that information (and more) inside the Rockwell Business Emporium® for holistic providers. It is accessible to the entire student body and divided into two parts: part one, practical applications and business setup, and part two, business energetics and spiritual economics.

Read more about licensure and board certification here.

All U.S. residents can order and interpret functional labs (bloodwork) for themselves and others without intent to treat, diagnose, or prescribe.

You act as a non-physician, holistic doctor who targets, reverses, and eliminates root causes with a focus on prevention.

Anytime biomarkers indicating a possible diagnosable disease are observed, you should refer those tests to a qualified licensed medical professional since diagnosing falls outside our scope of practice. 

Our graduates can access physician-only testing through built-in medical director programs and physician networks. 

Non-U.S. student residents outside the U.S. cannot access functional labs in their home country, but they can remotely order testing for U.S. resident clients.

The Latin word 'doctor' (or docere) originally meant 'teacher.' We are non-physician doctors as teachers, natural health practitioners, and holistic providers. 

Holistic doctors use natural, functional, and holistic medicine to target, reverse, and eliminate root causes with a focus on prevention.

Conventional medical doctors treat symptoms and diagnose conditions.

Modern medicine, different from both, spurs medical miracles and gives humans more choices in healthcare, such as elective surgery.

At Rockwell, you become a holistic doctor, as a Ph.D., not a licensed physician MD.

You won't put 'Dr." in front of your name, but rather PhD. after it.

This is proper etiquette in respecting and differentiating a physician from a non-physician PhD holder. However, a PhD holder is often verbally referred to as "doctor."

We teach you how to discuss your career as a holistic doctor in conversational settings and your written communication so you always maintain professionalism and decorum.

No, because you'll be practicing as a non-physician, holistic doctor who doesn't treat, diagnose, or prescribe but instead targets, reverses, and eliminates root causes with a focus on prevention. 

As a Rockwell-Certified Holistic Provider, R-CHP®, we teach you to work within your scope of clinical practice.

This means you'll never treat disease, diagnose conditions, or prescribe pharmaceutical drugs unless your residing state otherwise licenses you to do so. Instead, you'll learn how to target, reverse, and eliminate root causes with our practice model, Ideal Health Theory®.

Unless you're licensed to do so, you won't be practicing medicine, and you'll avoid terminology that indicates otherwise, such as 'treat, diagnose, and prescribe' in your socials, advertising, and client interactions to avoid legal consequences and honor good practice ethics.

However, you can become ecclesiastical licensed, which protects your right to dispense natural health advice as long as you work within your scope of practice.

Ironically, licensed medical professionals also need this type of licensing to protect their state medical license from conflict of interest when practicing outside their normal standards of care.

Such terminology (treat, diagnose, and prescribe) is legally reserved for licensed medical professionals, including the term 'patient.' Holistic providers use clients instead of patients.

What we teach and what you learn radically differ from the disease care model of conventional medicine.

As long as you don't attempt to treat, diagnose, or prescribe, use the word 'cure' to make claims, and avoid calling your clients patients, you're all set to work responsibly within your scope of practice. 

Good providers have morals, ethics, values, and integrity, put people before profits, and practice safely, ethically, and responsibly.

A handful of states do not recognize licensed or traditional naturopathy.

In such states, licensed naturopaths are legally required to practice as health coaches instead of naturopathic physicians, even though they attended their version of med school, and traditional naturopaths can practice as wellness professionals.

In such cases, our students still complete our traditional naturopathic coursework, but instead of using the title of Traditional Naturopathic Doctor, TND®, they'll use Doctor of Certified Holistic Health, DCHH®, and receive a unique certificate of completion that only graduates in these situations are eligible for.

ND/NMD are professional designations reserved for licensed naturopathic physicians or medical doctors in almost half of the states in the continental U.S., and therefore, our graduates do not use that title.

Rockwell is not affiliated with the AANMC (Association of Accredited Naturopathic Medical Colleges) or the CNME (Council on Naturopathic Medical Education).

Attending Rockwell will not qualify you to take the NPLEX (Naturopathic Physician Licensing Exam) because we focus on teaching traditional naturopathy, which is not a licensed form of the modality and represents its original form.

Many would-be naturopathic physicians find licensed naturopathy geographically and financially out of reach, so learning traditional naturopathy is the next best option; however, others prefer classical teachings.

At Rockwell, you'll have lifetime access and the flexibility to transfer your program for any reason.

This request comes with a one-time $150 transfer set-up fee.

Please note that there are no refunds, as all program content is released simultaneously.

We're a holistic educator of natural health modalities that do not include conventional medicine.

Our graduates never treat, diagnose, or prescribe.

Instead, we target, reverse, and eliminate root causes with a focus on prevention.

Our graduates are eligible for holistic board certification through multiple organizations, practice insurance, and ecclesiastical licensing. 

We teach traditional, not licensed, naturopathy if you've chosen a natural medicine track.

This program is not associated with the CNME (Council on Naturopathic Medical Education) because we teach traditional (not licensed) naturopathy, which is the original naturopathy.

We are multi-professionally accredited, like all schools of this class and type.

We are associated with numerous certification boards, such as the AADP and the ANCB, which you can choose from upon graduation for your own board certification.

Many of our graduates get double and triple-board certified.

Holistic providers and natural health professionals have been eligible for their version of practice insurance, licensure, and board certification for the last 20-30 years, depending on the organization.
