Course Details:

This is an extremely comprehensive course that details a life-time of herbal practitioner experience by listing herbal plants and indicating for which conditions they are suitable. World-wide interest in herbal medicines is increasing at a phenomenal rate for a number of reasons but chiefly because of the fear of synthetic pharmaceuticals and their sometimes alarming and dramatic side effects.

This course is the ultimate reference work for a huge range of medical conditions and they are covered throughout in alphabetical order - making reference searching a very simply matter.

And one should never forget that a herbal remedy is far more likely to help where there has been misdiagnosis or where related problems exist.

Specific topics covered in the course include:

• Classification and Definition of Herbs.
• History of Herbal Medicine.
• The Law of Contraries.
• Medicinal Herbs.
• Growing Herbs.
• Poultices, Pills & Tisanes.
• Medicinal and Beneficial Herb uses in Food.
• Cosmetic Use of Herbs.
• Herbal Baths.

Personality/Intelligence Test

All our students have the option to take this revealing test for an additional cost of €25.00.

The test asks questions to determine:

• Are you a 'Take-Charge' type?
   
• Are you a manipulative person?
   
• Are you a real friend when the going gets rough?
   
• How popular are you?
   
• Could you be your own boss?
   
• What’s your leadership potential?

The objective is not only to help you achieve greater personal and professional success – but to show you how to get what you really want out of life.

Management/Leadership Skills Test

All students of this course have the option to take a Management/Leadership Test for an additional cost of €35.00. This test is conducted on our behalf by Verax international. This test has to be taken on line and the results will be sent directly to each student by email usually within 3/4 working days.

The test will allow you to assess your own performance against 16 key management/leader competencies - such as customer focus, decision making, creativity and team working - which are valued by employers and which are very important for effective performance as a manager or team leader. There is one test for managers in the public sector and a separate test for all other managers. Depending on which version chosen, your performance is benchmarked either against 15,000 or so managers in the database or against public sector managers only.

In summary, this unique test will show you what to stop doing (or do less of) and what to start doing (or do more of) in order to become more effective in your current role/activity. In effect, you are told what you need to do to become a more effective manager and team leader and most important of all, how to do it.
