Our mission is to support naturopaths and Western herbal medicine practitioners to deliver excellence in healthcare in Australia.

The highest education standards.

The NHAA has been setting the highest standards in the education and practice of herbal medicine in Australia since 1920. The NHAA offers a comprehensive process for the recognition of both Australian and international courses in Naturopathy and Western Herbal Medicine. Our course recognition standards aim to assist educational institutions by providing standards for curriculum design.

The NHAA course recognition standards aim to assist training providers by providing standards for curriculum design. By utilising these guidelines and the associated documents, your institution can apply to have one or more of its courses recognised by the NHAA.
Educational institutions apply for NHAA recognition for specific courses, which involves detailed examination of the course material.

Successful recognition results in that course being given NHAA recognised status, with the attendant benefits for institutions as well as students and future graduates. To apply for course recognition, please contact the association at nhaa@nhaa.org.au.
