Herbalists&#8217; right to practice is protected by their\u00a0right to free speech under the First Amendment of the United States Constitution. Herbalists\u00a0can educate clients on how to use healthful food, lifestyle practices, and herbs to support wellness and correct imbalance so the body can heal itself, but it is illegal for herbalists\u00a0to treat, cure, and prescribe as medical doctors can. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The American Herbalists Guild (AHG) is a professional organization that provides a peer-reviewed Registered Herbalist designation. While this does not have legal meaning like Board Certification for doctors, it does demonstrate that an herbalist has achieved a level of proficiency evaluated and recognized by professional herbalist peers, and some herbalists seek to achieve this designation. That being said, it is not a requirement for practice as an herbalist.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What about accreditation?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Various organizations offer accreditation of schools, however this does not guarantee the quality of the program. There are many well-established herbal schools that will choose not to be listed with these organizations. And until there is a system in place to offer licensing of herbalists, the Herbal Academy will operate as an independent herbal school as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>By declining to be part of larger herbal organizations, the Herbal Academy has been able to save thousands of dollars, and pass those savings on by offering affordable <a title=\"affordable online herbal courses\" href=\"https:\/\/theherbalacademy.com\/courses-classes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">online herbal courses<\/a> for students in the United States\u00a0and across the world. Providing the resources and programs independently is the right decision to fulfill our mission as a school!<\/p>\n<p>Because there are no set of standards in the field of herbalism, it is incumbent upon schools teaching herbalism to offer the very best programs that they can for those who wish to further their education. To bring our students quality programs, we have built a team of clinical herbalists, herbal enthusiasts, medical doctors and \u201cregular folks\u201d who are all actively involved in our course development.

However, the amount of resources available online and in libraries can be overwhelming to say the least! Studying herbalism with a school can provide a safe and guided learning environment to master your herbal skills. Herbalism schools also offer an opportunity to ask questions of educators and the chance to build community with fellow classmates.<\/p>\n<p>While we do not make claims to produce certified herbalists, enrolling in our <a title=\"online herbal programs\" href=\"https:\/\/theherbalacademy.com\/courses-classes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">online herbal programs<\/a> will offer you the chance to earn a <b>certificate of completion<\/b>, which recognizes your passing of the course under the direction of the school and its educators.
