I just recently completed the RMT program at KCCIHS (August 2019) and I really believe that this school and administration has to be one of the most thoughtful, caring and accommodating schools out there. Although the RMT program is relatively new to the school and as with any program/school, challenging situations can arise, I believe that the school and administration rose above in all situations to ensure that the needs of the students were met. The school works incredibly hard to ensure that the highest quality of education and teaching is provided to their students. I feel as though the school prepared us very well for our written and practical Registration exams and left the exams feeling confident that I had successfully passed.

I am a current student here at KCCIHS. First off I think attention needs to be paid to the fact that ANY school is going to have a contract for students. This is part of the education system, and proves as integrity on the students part. The reason you sign a contract is to show that you WANT to be in the program and know there is a heavy workload along with it. If there isn't sufficient research done on your part about the program and if you'd like to do it or not that fault is yours and not the schools. Myself personally, I did lots of looking around at other programs before joining the school here. It is my second year and I have enjoyed it. Nelson is an amazing place to study, and I adore being surrounded by like minded individuals in the classroom. Although the workload is heavy (as will be with a lot of health orientated programs) the school has lots of options in helping students, last year for example they sorted out a tutoring program for the first years by the senior students. Educational for all. As well as this they allow students a big room with massage tables to practice in (weekends as well) and a Saturday study club ran by one of the professors. The passion the professors and the school holds for health is what truly inspired me- and continues to inspire me to study here. Watching the successful practitioners and massage therapists that walk out of the doors as new professionals reminds me when studying gets hard that it is all worth it.

The students at the clinic are very attentive and well advised by their instructors in the application of their training. The relief I have received so far from both massage and acupuncture is well worth the discounted rates they charge. Book your first visit if you are tight on funds and looking to get some much needed physical relief! Plus you are helping assist in the training of great future healers coming out of the heart of our province.

I'm in my second year of the TCM program and I'm glad I chose KCC. The learning environment is very positive and supportive and the small class sizes allow for plenty of one on one time with the teachers. Not only are teachers knowledgable, but they also truly care about the well being of their students. The school recognizes that peaking the student's curiosity is just as important as teaching the fundamental textbook information. This is one of aspects that drew me to attend the school, as well as the beautiful location of Nelson!

The quality of instruction and commitment of faculty and staff at KCC is second to none. My experience here has been absolutely first rate. You can’t beat the stunning location and the welcoming people of Nelson!
