Links to the information regarding tuition fees and registration for individual courses from George Brown College and Ontario Learn are available on the Traditional Herbalist Diploma Program page of our website. The tuition fees for individual courses vary from year to year and based on what educational institution offers the course. The approximate total tuition for all Level 1 college courses is $3,500 - $4,000 depending on the course options chosen by each individual student.
Traditional Herbalist, Level 2

Level 2 of the Traditional Herbalist program consists of a series of five seven day workshops.
