Jung Tao School of Classical Chinese MedicineMission Statement The mission of Jung Tao School of Classical Chinese Medicine is to educate students to take their place as doctors of the highest caliber; who are fluent in the healing practices of both the East and the West; who understand the daoist principle of living a life in consonance and accord; and who manifest these principles in their professional and personal lives. Jung Tao School seeks to equilibrate the systems, bringing Western medicine and Chinese medicine into a unified understanding of biology and physics and thereby complete the science of health care. Succinctly stated, the mission is to: * Preserve and disseminate the ancient art of classical Chinese medicine
in its original and purest form. History
Programs Offered The Jung Tao School offers a four-year masters level diploma in acupuncture program. The goal of this program is to train students to be highly educated and compassionate health care practitioners. Graduates of Jung Tao are firmly grounded in the classics of Chinese medicine, providing a strong foundation upon which they may build their career as a healer. In addition, graduates are well-versed in Western medicine, so as to include the “other half” of the picture presented by their patients, as well as having the ability to confidently and accurately communicate with health professionals from all fields of medicine. This integrated approach to medicine is the most effective for diagnosing and treating the patient as a whole. Didactic classes are held five full consecutive days per month, Wednesday - Sunday. These five day sessions occur ten months per year for the first three years, with breaks occurring in January and July. In addition to this five day per month didactic schedule, each student must complete one 90 and two 60 hour clinical observation rotations. Clinical internship is performed in the fourth year, with students working in the clinic for five consecutive days per month for the entire 12 months of the final year. All internship training is conducted in the school’s on-site intern clinic.

The Jung Tao School of Classical Chinese Medicine began as the Jung Tao
School of Chinese Studies, and was founded in Minnesota in 1976. Based
on changes in licensing laws, the school relocated, and established itself
in North Carolina in November 1997, with the first series of classes held
the following year. Jung Tao's program is currently a candidate for accreditation
with the Accreditation Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine.
It was granted candidate status in 2001, and formally accredited by ACAOM in 2005.
