Career Development

Five Branches University is dedicated to providing MTCM students with the support, education and resources to move forward in their chosen career endeavor. We offer the following Career Development services:

Career Counseling

While the majority of graduates from Five Branches University enter practice as sole proprietors, opportunities in integrative medicine, corporate wellness, academics, publishing and TCM research are continually increasing. Whatever your career of choice, career counselors will guide and support you in pursuing your optimal career path.

Practice Management Courses

Specialized practice management courses are taught by experts in the field on how to start, manage, build, and sustain a practice. We also invite successful alumni to speak to students about their unique experiences in practice.

Assistantship Program

A mentoring relationship is fostered through an assistantship program, offering students valuable business experience in a practice environment.

Job Placement Services

An online database of professional opportunities connect employers with students. Graduating students can search for job openings, space to rent, integrative practice opportunities, and practices for sale.

Career Resource Library

Practice management books, videos, and other valuable business resources are available in the library to help you establish a new career or start a successful practice.

Alumni Services

Support services are available to assist alumni in starting, building and managing a practice, or establishing and maintaining a TCM career. Ongoing business workshops and seminars are hosted during the year as well as continuing efforts to foster and enhance relationships between fellow alumni and students.
