about

A credible pathway into integrative medicine.

ICTIM is an online educational institution dedicated to the provision of clinical training and CPD programmes in integrative medicine. Based in Ireland, with students studying across Ireland, the UK, the United States, and internationally, we are committed to making academically rigorous herbal and integrative medicine training accessible — without requiring students to attend a campus full time.

Our directors have been involved in third-level education for many years and are dedicated to maintaining the highest educational standards. Both the Clinical Training Diploma and CPD programmes are conducted at a level that reflects independent scope of practice, with examinations assessed to mirror Level 9 standards.

At ICTIM, traditional medicine is not a philosophical add-on to biomedical training — it is a structured system in its own right. Students are trained to work within traditional medical worldviews, including Irish indigenous medicine, Ayurveda, and Traditional Chinese Medicine, while developing the ability to integrate these with modern clinical practice. This dual competency is what distinguishes ICTIM graduates.

Study from anywhere. Qualify for practice.

ICTIM's programmes are delivered fully online and in blended format — combining self-paced online learning with live webinars, case-based tutorials, and clinical placement. There is no requirement to attend a physical campus. You can study from anywhere in Ireland or internationally, at a pace that fits around your professional and personal commitments.

How our learning model works

Self-paced online modules

Course materials, readings, and recorded content are available on demand through our online learning platform. Study in the mornings, evenings, or weekends — whenever works for you.

Live webinars and tutorials

Regular scheduled sessions with faculty are delivered online. Tutorials are case-based rather than lecture-format — mirroring the clinical reasoning you will use in practice.

Ongoing academic support

Each student receives continuous feedback on written assignments and has access to faculty throughout their studies. A personal mentor is assigned during the clinical training programme.

Clinical placement

Clinical practice is completed at a clinic of your choice. This flexibility means you are not restricted by geography — while still meeting the professional standards required for IIMH membership eligibility.

Online learning at ICTIM is not a compromise — it is the model the institution was built on. Our programmes have been designed from the ground up for online and blended delivery, maintaining the same academic rigour and clinical standards expected at postgraduate level. Students from across Ireland and internationally have completed their clinical training without relocating or taking time away from work.
