Accreditation

All AANMC member institutions have been accredited or are in candidate status for accreditation by one of the regional accrediting agencies approved by the US Department of Education.

In addition, all of the naturopathic medicine programs of the member schools have been accredited (or are candidates for accreditation) by the Council on Naturopathic Medical Education (CNME), the recognized accreditor for naturopathic medical programs in North America. Graduation from a naturopathic medicine program that is accredited or is a candidate for accreditation guarantees eligibility to sit for the Naturopathic Physicians Licensing Examinations (NPLEX), the passage of which is required to obtain licensure.

For over 15 years the CNME has helped to develop and maintain the highest standards of education for naturopathic doctors. For further information on accreditation, contact:
