Education
Creating outstanding integrative health leaders through transformative education and trainingThe Osher Center for Integrative Health is committed to producing outstanding integrative health leaders through transformative education and training.
We specialize in teaching, curriculum design, mentoring, faculty development, and educational research. Our goal is to provide the highest quality integrative medicine education to current and future healthcare practitioners, researchers, and educators.
We believe that improving health and well-being for both patients and practitioners requires knowledge of the most current research and evidence-based practices, skill in connecting with people to provide relationship-centered care, and a commitment to self-care.
We also recognize that wellness and illness are shaped by the contexts of people’s lives. Our Education Program emphasizes awareness of and responses to the social, behavioral, and economic factors that influence health and health care.
