Welcome

Jennifer GawneHi there! My name is Jennifer Gawne. I am a proud ACOS alumna and pleased to be the administrator of the Academy of Classical Oriental Sciences. I am a TCM herbalist, teacher, foodie and lover of life.

This blog was originally suggested by an ACOS graduate, Elizabeth Nachtwey, R.Ac., who felt we needed a way to keep all our graduates connected and keep us informed of the amazing things ACOS grads do.

So here it is, the ACOS blog.  I hope this blog will provide an opportunity to mentor each other, exchange information on exciting treatment methods you have tried or to post a question about a difficult case.

As a graduate of the academy myself, I am proud of all of the alumni and the careers you have created for yourselves.

Feel free to leave comments and be sure to check out our ACOS Facebook group or follow me on Twitter.

If you would like to share what is going on in your world please send me your stories and photos and I will post your adventures on line. Your contributions may be quoted in full or excerpted to fit our site but otherwise it will be pure, un-distilled you!

A recent graduate suggested we create an alumni fund to fill the library, create bursaries for current students and help purchase new equipment for the school. So, we’ve done it! Should you find it in your heart to donate money to the ‘ACOS Alumni Fund’ please send a check our way, made payable to ACOS and specify that it is for the ‘ACOS Alumni Fund’. We will send you back a tax receipt and lovingly acknowledge your contribution and let you know what the funds went towards.

We look forward to hearing from you and hope you are happy and whole and healing others.

Hi Kiem,

Great to hear from you. Unfortunately, we do not have any ACOS alumni in Montreal that I know of. We have several alumni in the Toronto and Ottawa area but of course that is not Montreal! Let me know if you would like those contact numbers. I know for certain that there are many TCM practitioners and acupuncturists in the Montreal area, your clients may just have to do a little research.

I hope you and your family are well. From what I hear your practice is flourishing. Please fill us in a bit on your practice and any new or exciting treatments you are currently using.

I hope you have a lovely summer.

Talk to you soon, Jennifer

Hello everyone,

I am the Head of Recruitment here at 2edu in Australia and always on the lookout for good academics! If you have an academic background in TCM (or know of someone who does) with a PhD, and at least some good recent publications, there may be openings in the future at tertiary institutions here in Australia. If you are interested in exploring the options further either contact me directly by email or register on our web site and provide a cv, preferably with a cover letter.

Regards to all,

Joe
