Who is the Rockwell Tri-Doctorate Certification Program® for?
The Rockwell Tri-Doctorate Certification Program®, RTD, is for licensed and unlicensed providers who wish to become functionally and holistically trained.
What are the pre-requisites to enroll?
There are no prereqs.
Why?
This is an unregulated industry, so no red-tape stipulations will be used as barriers of entry to your success or progress.
Some of the best, most adept, driven, and successful holistic providers of the past are either self-taught, never formally educated, and/or had no previous degrees.
Keep reading for some examples of this.
With that in mind, people want a more structured, formalized education to help enhance and build on their innate personal and profession worth, value, and credibility.
They want a name they can stand behind and an educator they can trust. That name is Rockwell.
If you are driven by a passion for holistic medicine and the healing arts, then you will thrive at Rockwell.
We provide all the tools you need to build your confidence and credibility, no matter where you're starting.
Take Susun Weed as an example, who proudly declares her lack of formal education and unfinished collegiate career in her bio. She rose up way before the advent of natural health schools.
Yet, there's no wiser, spunkier, more well-respected herbalist and multi-book author than herself.
She embraced her gifts and didn't let anyone or anything hold her back. We hope you won't either.
And take Stephen Harrod Buhner as another example and pioneering herbalist whom some might call a "nobody genius", but no less than an herbal rock star.
He has authored dozens of brilliant in-depth, deeply scientific books. He writes jaw-dropping, mouth-watering source citations and bibliographies as if he were a professional research scientist.
In fact, he is —only better.
He's saved millions globally with his Lyme and coinfection protocols, his herbal specialty. He has written a multitude of books on plant intelligence and sacred, indigenous plant medicine.
So if you're worried you don't have what it takes, rest assured, you're in good hands.
Yes, even if you don't have a fancy, formal education or long-winded collegiate career with letters behind your name, —yet.
We provide those professional designations for you.
Remember, you too can build an incredible name and career for yourself like Susun and Stephen, with just your story, experience, passion, and calling.
We'll show you how with our 12-step business blueprint and practice-building methodology inside the Rockwell Business Emporium®.

For a complete list, you may view all the available certifications here. For professional titles and designations, see the following Q&A.
What professional designation will I use upon graduation?
We offer the Rockwell Tri-Doctorate Certification Program® (RTD), which comprises 5 holistic doctorates and 7 minor certifications.
You'll begin receiving certifications in Module 1: Science & Medicine, which will continue as you move through the program modules.
Each certification comes with its own unique designation or title.
For example, you'll receive your first certificate of completion as a Rockwell Certified Health & Wellness Coach®.
Your title would be Rockwell Certified Health & Wellness Coach®, and your professional designation would be RCHWC.
As you advance and gain additional doctorates and minor certifications, you may adjust your marketing materials to reflect the titles you most relate to and/or prefer.
You are welcome to use your professional titles and designations on your digital and printed business materials, a practice we discuss more in-depth in the Rockwell Business Emporium®.
The 5 holistic doctorate titles are as follows:
Doctorate of Functional Medicine®, DFM
Doctorate of Traditional Naturopathy®, DTN
Doctorate of Clinical Herbalism®, DCH
Doctorate of Advanced Holistic Nutrition®, DAHN
Doctorate of Spiritual Medicine®, DSM
Once your entire program has been completed, your final designation is that of a Rockwell Certified Holistic Provider®, RCH-P.
You can see all certifications and designation here.
I don’t have a practice yet / I’m just getting started. Will this work for beginners?
YES!
In the many people we have taken through this program, we have found that our students get results at EVERY SINGLE LEVEL.
In fact, we've had many people join and start their coaching businesses FROM SCRATCH inside the program.
Every single one of our new holistic providers signed their very first client inside the program, at varying levels of certification.
Gina didn't have a business when she joined in April and has since gone on to clarify her niche, her ideal customer, and her message.
She has signed 5 new clients and landed 4 podcast interviews in the last 3 months!
Alara was in her first year of business when she joined in January and just hit her first $10,000 month inside the Rockwell Business Emporium, going from "not having a clue how to market" to "having total clarity in messaging to exactly how to write content and market on social media."
How much is tuition?
YES!
Tuition payment plans can be found on our enrollment page here.
One-time, full-pay tuition enrollees will save $549.
We offer an alternate program payment plan, which costs the same, but reduces the monthly tuition over a longer period of time verses our typical one year tuition plans.
Please see the following Q&A for more info.
I’ve been financially affected by COVID. Are there payment plans available?
YES!
We made a promise that no one should be excluded, least of all for economic reasons, considering Ava rose from abject poverty, hand-me-downs, and limited provisions.
Some of her friends didn't even have access to running water and indoor plumbing. She would never have been able to afford this life-changing program.
That's why we have made the Rockwell Tri-Doctorate Certification Program® (RTD) accessible for everyone!
We offer our very own version of a scholarship, which allows your program to be financed in-house, eliminating fees and interests from outside financing. This means you pay the same price as everyone else. That's equality.
On a sliding scale, you can join today for as little as $266 or $399, depending on where you qualify, which extends payments out from 1 year, to 2 or 3 years.
We are happy to offer this reduced monthly payment scholarship-type plan without interest and extended terms to those who truly need it and don't wanna wait for 'one day,' to arrive. After all, the revolution won't wait and neither can you.
You will still pay the full tuition, but it will be modified into lower, bite-size, monthly chunks, with either a $266 or $399 monthly tuition payment plan option, depending on where you fall on our sliding scale.
This is not available on the main enrollment page.
Send us an email or schedule a discovery call to request and set up this option.
Important Additional Information From our enrollment page,
—We've been there, and that's why we support and meet individuals at all levels. Education should never be limited to only those who can afford it but to all who seek it.
If you need financial assistance through an extended and reduced monthly tuition payment plan, visit our FAQ to learn more. Remember that we limit this opportunity to the first 300 of our estimated 1500 annual student intake.
We are midway through 2022, and spots are over 2/3 filled. We will resume this process annually in March of 2023, so be sure to check back if you are told that all spots are full.
How long does it take to complete the RTD?
The Rockwell Tri-Doctorate Certification Program® takes one year to complete working 12 hours per week. Those who can dedicate working 10-20 hours a week may finish a little more slowly or quickly, depending. In the meantime, you'll be grabbing holistic doctorate titles and professional designations left and right. You continuously earn certification after certification.
How long does it take to complete each individual certification?
You'll begin receiving your first certification, the Rockwell Certified Health & Wellness Coach, RCHWC, in as little as 6 weeks.
Inside the learning platform, you will see timestamps that indicate the length of each lesson.
The required reading has also been timed with special software, so you never have to wonder how long a lesson or module will take.
On average, it's about 4-6 weeks per certification and module.
In addition, not every module has certifications, such as the health conditions and the business emporium, which are both towards the end of the program, and can be optionally used as needed at any time, pre or post-graduation.
Am I really able to order and intepret labs under the medical director program if I reside in the United States?
Yes, you are because you are working under a provider network and medical director program, meaning all testing oversight is made by a physician.
You'll learn all about the most advanced testing on the market.
You'll know every lab provider and learn how to order your own labs for you, your family, and your clients once you complete the functional blood chemistry module.
However, those who reside in N.Y. will not have access to CYREX unless their client takes the test out of state, due to restrictions. Those who reside in C.T., RI, or N.Y. will not have access to Evexia.
However, if they have a P.O. Box outside the state to ship testing materials to, and/or their client goes to an out of state lab, they can participate. These are the only current lab restrictions.
Our medical director program should be in place by Fall 2022. Our students currently work under Evexia's physician network.
What do the program materials consist of?
Our educational platform offers the most beautiful user interface from which to launch the educational journey of a lifetime and one that is truly life-changing.
You will learn from video lectures, period journals, lay articles, infographics, anecdotal theory, and required reading.
We provide tools, such as client and modality intakes and any liability waivers and practice forms you need. We teach you our science-backed and proven 12-step business-building blueprint to help you become the holistic provider you always wished you had.
In the Rockwell Business Emporium®, we teach you clarity in messaging, how to niche down and find your specialty, and marketing through authentic storytelling.
You will learn all of this and so much more which will enable you to quickly build and scale your practice.
There is an exam after each module, and a final program exam, as well.
You must get 90% on all exams, which can be retaken as many times as you need to achieve this score.
The purpose of the exams is to challenge, test, and reinforce your knowledge.
Is there required reading?
Yes, we definitely have required reading in specific modules. And you'll absolutely love the books we've hand selected for the Rockwell Tri-Doctorate Certification Program®.
We provide general reading times and timed reading tests so you can calculate your reading speed to know more specifically how long a book will take to get through a certain title. You'll use your beautiful textbooks as desk references for years and years to come.
What are the graduation requirements to gain certification?
Once you've completed your first doctorate, you can schedule an exit interview.
During our meeting, you will submit your dissertation subject options for approval.
Once your dissertation is agreed upon, completed, and written, it will be published on our website.
This valuable exercise builds social proof for your online reputation, practice credibility, and SEO.
This exercise also helps strengthen and build your writing skills for your own future content strategy.
All paper specifications can be found on our graduation requirements page in the link below.
You can read about the final graduation requirements here.
Please keep in mind, the dissertation project is somewhat new, and not all papers are published, as we've moved from one platform to the another.
Please check out some of these publications on our blog. You'll see a mix of short articles and longer papers there.
If you have a disability that interferes with your ability to complete this requirement, then you may contact us for an alternate solution.
Will I qualify for E&O liability insurance once I graduate?
Yes, we provide global insurance options for your holistic practice so that no matter where you are, you can be protected from liability as long as you practice within the model we outline for RCH-Ps.
Is it legal to call myself a doctor?
The original meaning of 'doctor' or docere in Latin means 'teacher.'
As a Rockwell Certified Holistic Provider®, RCH-P, you are uniquely positioned to help educate clients on how to improve their health.
That is how we use the term, and that is how the term has been used for decades by schools of this class and type.
Please check out the article in our blog called, "Why I Should Be Addressed as Doctor," written by one of our graduates and the program director for our traditional naturopathic program, Dr. Michael Leonardo.
In addition, you are entirely within your right to practice as a holistic provider and call yourself a doctor of whatever title you hold with Rockwell, as long as you are clear what kind of doctor you are.
We make these things very clear. There is a world of difference between a physician and a holistic provider or holistic doctor.
We always clarify the type of doctor we are in our printed materials and advertising, which is legally required. This is great because people are looking for just that. Gone are the days of blind trust in conventional medicine.
People are looking for what you have, and there's no need to shy away from that. We encourage total transparency in your practice about what kind of doctor you are.
After all, statistics show we are the future of medicine. Of course, you will never put MD, DO, NP, RN, ND/NMD, or PA after your name, unless they legally apply.
Will I get in trouble for practicing medicine as a non-physician?
As a Rockwell Certified Holistic Provider, RCH-P, we teach you to work within your scope of practice. This means you will never treat disease, diagnose conditions, or prescribe pharmaceutical drugs unless you are otherwise licensed to do so.
The practice model we provide focuses on building health through functional blood chemistry, stress management, moving beyond core wounding, and holistic lifestyle choices.
Unless you are licensed to do so, you will not be practicing medicine, nor will you use terminology such as 'treat, diagnose, and prescribe' in your practice or socials.
Such terminology is legally reserved for licensed medical professionals.
The only exception is if you prescribe herbs or pharmaceutical-grade, prescription-strength homeopathy.
What we teach and what you learn are radically different from the disease care model of conventional medicine.
We guide you in your practice and provide client intake forms that include disclaimers and built-in liability protection in writing, making your provider description and credentials clear.
In total transparency, this paperwork also lists what you do not do, which is practice medicine.
As long as you remember the big 3, treat, diagnose and prescribe as something you do not do, and you do not make wild claims and use the word 'cure,' then you are all set to work within your scope of practice.
What restrictions are there on title and practice, if any?
We use the title DTN or Doctor of Traditional Naturopathy® or TND, Traditional Naturopathic Doctor.
We do not use the professional designations of ND/NMD, which is the title reserved for licensed naturopathic physicians or naturopathic medical doctors.
This is a legal distinction reserved for a certain type of licensed medical provider, which we are not.
We have a differing focus and differing educational backgrounds, making us different legally and provider-wise.
In contrast, we are traditional or classical naturopaths, —the original naturopaths.
Lastly, whether licensed or traditional, naturopathy is not legal in some states, such as Florida, Texas, and Tennessee.
In such states, our graduates will still receive their naturopathic certification, however they will practice under the RCHHP or Rockwell Certified Holistic Health Professional® title and designation instead of the Traditional Naturopathic Doctor®, TND or Doctor of Traditional Naturopathy®, DTN.
Do you help me with pricing my services once I graduate?
Yes, we provide pricing model tiers and all the tools you will need to build a wildly successful practice, brimming with abundance... And it's all inside the Rockwell Business Emporium®, which you can learn more about in the next Q&A entry.
Is there a business blueprint and methodology for graduates to follow to help them with building their practice?
We provide a proven, science-backed, soulful 12-step business blueprint for practice-building.
This includes set up and scalable systems, practice management software, brand voice/tone, content planning / strategy, and socials.
You will learn how to overcome limiting beliefs, core shame, imposter syndrome, and unresolved trauma to move beyond the past and embrace the success you deserve.
We have weekly lives that help you move beyond barriers and break free from anything that has ever held you back from manifesting your full potential.
You will also learn how to write your own best copy, create your website, build welcome email sequences, set up your subscriber list, and trust the process of becoming who you were meant to be.
All the tools you need for successful practice can be found inside the Rockwell Business Emporium.
I'm busy and worried I won't have time. Should I still enroll?
YES!
Here's why...
Using the principles taught inside the Rockwell Business Emporium®, you can get results in as little as 3 hours.
When we say we're a business minimalist, what we mean is that we make the MOST, with the LEAST.
And that means pulling in your ideal clients with as little effort and time as possible.
In the program, we teach you exactly how to tap into the quantum to write content that works like a siren song.
Meaning, you can ditch the daily effort and create 10 times the results in less than half the time.
We're famous for pulling in 22 new clients with just 1 piece of content and this is what we'll teach YOU to do inside the Rockwell Business Emporium®.
Find out how to use our replicable model process and learn how Helena made $12k in May working with just 3 client packages.
Can I become board certified as a Rockwell Certified Holistic Provider?
Yes. Any board certification provider of this class and type for holistic providers, will allow you to apply to become board certified.
Some organizations, like the American Association of Drugless Practitioners, AADP, allow you to become a member by simply applying. There's no test.
Other providers, like the American Naturopathic Certification Board (ANCB) and the American Association of Wellness Professionals (AAWP), allow those who have completed the Doctorate of Traditional Naturopathy to sit for board certification, which requires testing by proxy.
The ANCB and the AAWP provide study guides to help prepare you.
Trainees who have completed the Doctorate of Clinical Herbalism, and begun practice, gaining their clinical hours as a part of their business operations, may apply to become a registered herbalist with the American Herbalist Guild.
However, board certifications are optional, although most trainees feel that it enhances their professional credibility. They can represent an additional cost in your yearly practice overhead, but many find it is well worth it.
What do your certificates of completion look like?
We provide 12 visually stunning certificates of completion, suitable for framing and display, and conveniently distributed online or via email. You can view those here.
Is there an annual re-certification process?
Yes, we require an annual re-certification which includes 2 hours of CEUs (continuing education units). You can do free CEU from us, or anywhere you want that adds value to your practice.
The cost is $47 per annum and involves participation in one live webinar yearly. This keeps the community together and allows us to house conferences and practicums.
Your annual re-certification falls on the same time every year for anyone enrolled the year before, in March. We'll send out reminders when this time of the year arrives.
As a Rockwell Certified Holistic Provider, will I be limited to using only product brands affiliated with Rockwell?
Of course not.
This is Rockwell, remember? We're a school that encourages you to think for yourself.
We do have product recommendations based on our own research and experience, but we always encourage you to explore all of your options. And always feel free to recommend products to us that we may not have heard about.
How can I get more information than what's on the website?
You can download a program brochure here.
Is there a refund/cancellation policy?
Yes, you may get a full refund within 14-days if you are not completely satisfied for any reason.
Tuition payments are not refunded, but you can cancel at anytime inside your account login.
However, if you are on a reduced monthly /extended tuition payment plan, you will need to contact us to delete your tuition payment subscription.
How can you tell if Rockwell is right for you?
You'll know Rockwell is right for you when you're ready to commit to your life as a holistic provider and step into the highest expression of your genius.
You'll know when you're ready to discover and unleash your brilliance, —which you've probably been keeping to yourself up until now.

We provide general reading times and timed reading tests so you can calculate your reading speed to know more specifically how long a book will take to get through a certain title. You'll use your beautiful textbooks as desk references for years and years to come.
What are the graduation requirements to gain certification?
Once you've completed your first doctorate, you can schedule an exit interview.
During our meeting, you will submit your dissertation subject options for approval.
Once your dissertation is agreed upon, completed, and written, it will be published on our website.
This valuable exercise builds social proof for your online reputation, practice credibility, and SEO.
This exercise also helps strengthen and build your writing skills for your own future content strategy.
All paper specifications can be found on our graduation requirements page in the link below.
You can read about the final graduation requirements here.
Please keep in mind, the dissertation project is somewhat new, and not all papers are published, as we've moved from one platform to the another.
Please check out some of these publications on our blog. You'll see a mix of short articles and longer papers there.
If you have a disability that interferes with your ability to complete this requirement, then you may contact us for an alternate solution.
Will I qualify for E&O liability insurance once I graduate?
Yes, we provide global insurance options for your holistic practice so that no matter where you are, you can be protected from liability as long as you practice within the model we outline for RCH-Ps.
Is it legal to call myself a doctor?
The original meaning of 'doctor' or docere in Latin means 'teacher.'
As a Rockwell Certified Holistic Provider®, RCH-P, you are uniquely positioned to help educate clients on how to improve their health.
That is how we use the term, and that is how the term has been used for decades by schools of this class and type.
Please check out the article in our blog called, "Why I Should Be Addressed as Doctor," written by one of our graduates and the program director for our traditional naturopathic program, Dr. Michael Leonardo.
In addition, you are entirely within your right to practice as a holistic provider and call yourself a doctor of whatever title you hold with Rockwell, as long as you are clear what kind of doctor you are.
We make these things very clear. There is a world of difference between a physician and a holistic provider or holistic doctor.
We always clarify the type of doctor we are in our printed materials and advertising, which is legally required. This is great because people are looking for just that. Gone are the days of blind trust in conventional medicine.
People are looking for what you have, and there's no need to shy away from that. We encourage total transparency in your practice about what kind of doctor you are.
After all, statistics show we are the future of medicine. Of course, you will never put MD, DO, NP, RN, ND/NMD, or PA after your name, unless they legally apply.
Will I get in trouble for practicing medicine as a non-physician?
As a Rockwell Certified Holistic Provider, RCH-P, we teach you to work within your scope of practice. This means you will never treat disease, diagnose conditions, or prescribe pharmaceutical drugs unless you are otherwise licensed to do so.
The practice model we provide focuses on building health through functional blood chemistry, stress management, moving beyond core wounding, and holistic lifestyle choices.
Unless you are licensed to do so, you will not be practicing medicine, nor will you use terminology such as 'treat, diagnose, and prescribe' in your practice or socials.
Such terminology is legally reserved for licensed medical professionals.
The only exception is if you prescribe herbs or pharmaceutical-grade, prescription-strength homeopathy.
What we teach and what you learn are radically different from the disease care model of conventional medicine.
We guide you in your practice and provide client intake forms that include disclaimers and built-in liability protection in writing, making your provider description and credentials clear.
In total transparency, this paperwork also lists what you do not do, which is practice medicine.
As long as you remember the big 3, treat, diagnose and prescribe as something you do not do, and you do not make wild claims and use the word 'cure,' then you are all set to work within your scope of practice.
What restrictions are there on title and practice, if any?
We use the title DTN or Doctor of Traditional Naturopathy® or TND, Traditional Naturopathic Doctor.
We do not use the professional designations of ND/NMD, which is the title reserved for licensed naturopathic physicians or naturopathic medical doctors.
This is a legal distinction reserved for a certain type of licensed medical provider, which we are not.
We have a differing focus and differing educational backgrounds, making us different legally and provider-wise.
In contrast, we are traditional or classical naturopaths, —the original naturopaths.
Lastly, whether licensed or traditional, naturopathy is not legal in some states, such as Florida, Texas, and Tennessee.
In such states, our graduates will still receive their naturopathic certification, however they will practice under the RCHHP or Rockwell Certified Holistic Health Professional® title and designation instead of the Traditional Naturopathic Doctor®, TND or Doctor of Traditional Naturopathy®, DTN.
Do you help me with pricing my services once I graduate?
Yes, we provide pricing model tiers and all the tools you will need to build a wildly successful practice, brimming with abundance... And it's all inside the Rockwell Business Emporium®, which you can learn more about in the next Q&A entry.
Is there a business blueprint and methodology for graduates to follow to help them with building their practice?
We provide a proven, science-backed, soulful 12-step business blueprint for practice-building.
This includes set up and scalable systems, practice management software, brand voice/tone, content planning / strategy, and socials.
You will learn how to overcome limiting beliefs, core shame, imposter syndrome, and unresolved trauma to move beyond the past and embrace the success you deserve.
We have weekly lives that help you move beyond barriers and break free from anything that has ever held you back from manifesting your full potential.
You will also learn how to write your own best copy, create your website, build welcome email sequences, set up your subscriber list, and trust the process of becoming who you were meant to be.
All the tools you need for successful practice can be found inside the Rockwell Business Emporium.

Can I become board certified as a Rockwell Certified Holistic Provider?
Yes. Any board certification provider of this class and type for holistic providers, will allow you to apply to become board certified.
Some organizations, like the American Association of Drugless Practitioners, AADP, allow you to become a member by simply applying. There's no test.
Other providers, like the American Naturopathic Certification Board (ANCB) and the American Association of Wellness Professionals (AAWP), allow those who have completed the Doctorate of Traditional Naturopathy to sit for board certification, which requires testing by proxy.
The ANCB and the AAWP provide study guides to help prepare you.
Trainees who have completed the Doctorate of Clinical Herbalism, and begun practice, gaining their clinical hours as a part of their business operations, may apply to become a registered herbalist with the American Herbalist Guild.
However, board certifications are optional, although most trainees feel that it enhances their professional credibility. They can represent an additional cost in your yearly practice overhead, but many find it is well worth it.
What do your certificates of completion look like?
We provide 12 visually stunning certificates of completion, suitable for framing and display, and conveniently distributed online or via email. You can view those here.
Is there an annual re-certification process?
Yes, we require an annual re-certification which includes 2 hours of CEUs (continuing education units). You can do free CEU from us, or anywhere you want that adds value to your practice.
The cost is $47 per annum and involves participation in one live webinar yearly. This keeps the community together and allows us to house conferences and practicums.
Your annual re-certification falls on the same time every year for anyone enrolled the year before, in March. We'll send out reminders when this time of the year arrives.
As a Rockwell Certified Holistic Provider, will I be limited to using only product brands affiliated with Rockwell?
Of course not.
This is Rockwell, remember? We're a school that encourages you to think for yourself.
We do have product recommendations based on our own research and experience, but we always encourage you to explore all of your options. And always feel free to recommend products to us that we may not have heard about.
