Aromatherapy Diploma Course - City & GuildsFor full details just click above.This is mapped to the Core Curriculum of the lead body for UK aromatherapy: the Aromatherapy Council. It enables the student to join professional bodies and regulators upon completion of the full programme (includes 6 mandatory tutorials/GLH). The course consists of 9 modules including 3 Anatomy, Physiology & Pathology modules and 2 generic modules. Those students who do not
wish to register with the Aromatherapy Council need only study the Home study
element with case studies, and attend 1 tutorial weekend, in order to practice
as an Aromatherapist and obtain professional indemnity insurance. (This applies
