The clinical internship program is for students that have completed any of the 3 paths of our Clinical Herbalist Training Program listed above.
NOTE: Village Herbalist Students can move into our Clinic Program if they have completed the required Field Studies programs.
In year one of the Clinical Internship, students use what they have learned as they work with clients in our community clinic.
The second year of clinical internship is through invitation rather than application. It is reserved for students who have completed the first year internship and who want continued support as they create a private practice of their own.
The American Herbalists Guild (AHG) is the non-profit organization that promotes professionalism and standardization in the education for the study and practice of therapeutic herbalism.
Many of our students continue to study and create a private practice after our clinical programs in order to become members of the AHG.
Our certification programs, together with the clinical internships, are instrumental in helping our students complete the necessary requirements for joining the AHG.
All people, regardless of cultural, political, religious, and other affiliations, are welcome at Berkeley Herbal Center, as clients, students, and employees.
