Commonly Asked Questions
About CEU/PDA

Unfortunately at this time we do not offer CEU/PDA credit for those with licenses in State of California. California has different standards for synchronous and asynchronous learning environments than NCCAOM and make it difficult for us to apply for additional certification.

The year-long course provides 100 credits for the Online Lecture Series; 10 credits per quarter for the recorded lectures and 15 credits per quarter for the live Sunday discussions. In addition, each week-long Clinical Retreat is worth 36 credits

As of 2019, NCCAOM has moved all certification activity to digital delivery. Instead of issuing paper or PDF certificates, Apricot Grove, as a provider of the courses, logs in to the NCCAOM Provider portal and submits electronic verification of each Diplomate who successfully completes the course requirements. The Diplomate can then log in to their NCCAOM Diplomate portal and view and retrieve certification.

If the information you submitted needs to be corrected, amended, or added, please contact our CEU coordinator Caitlin as soon as possible: caitlin@xinglininstitute.org.

Once you have submitted your application, the process to verify your participation and successful completion of the requirements (quizzes) usually takes about 2-3 weeks, but we work hard to issue credit as soon as possible.

At this time, the course does not provide Ethics & Safety CEU/PDA credits, though we are hopeful that we will be able to provide Ethics credits after the completion of the 2022-23 course.

We offer a course completion certificate for either the Online Lecture Series only (80 classroom hours), or for the Full Neijing Nature-Based Medicine Training (80 classroom hours, 84 clinical hours). This is different from CEU/PDA certification. The certificate is printed and ready for framing, and is mailed to you.

In order to be eligible for the course completion certificate, you must successfully complete all the requirements of the Online Lecture Series (same as applying for CEU/PDA) — and attend the Clinical Retreats for the Full Training certificate.
