Herbal Student Practicum Begins Sept. 24th
Practicum Meeting for All Students
Monday Sept. 24th 7pm
Herbal Healing Inc., Bay G 2410 – 2nd Ave SE Calgary
Students and prospective students/apprentices are invited to attend a brief meeting at 7pm on Monday, September 24th to go over some details of the CHSC (Calgary Herbal Student Clinic) practicum program. During the meeting we will decide, together, which dates we will get together for practicum, and also which topics/instructors will be featured.
This meeting is a great place to ask questions about practicum/student clinic, not only from the instructors but also to get feedback from other students who attended the year before. Please come out and help us optimize the program so everyone can take part this year.
