Courses in Herbology

“These programs may take up to two years to complete, and often require prerequisite education from an accredited school or university.”

The unique aspect of courses in herbology is that while students may enroll at a physical campus, there is a number of growing home study courses that are available to the homebound student or working adult learner.

Though curricula and program length may vary in holistic health schools, common studies included in courses in herbology are anatomy, physiology, nutrition, health and herbs; herbal properties, herbal preparations, herb identification, herbal cultivation, and cooking with herbs, among others.
