We, Drs. Raman and Sunita kapur, have tried to assimilate all our knowledge and experience of over 20 years of practice and present it in a form easily accessible, understandable and affordable to doctors. Due to the sustained and ongoing efforts of Dr. Sunita Kapur, who has been working tirelessly towards preparing the content and presentation of the teaching material, our dream of spreading the knowledge of acupuncture has finally come true by the inception of the Institute of acupuncture and natural medicines ( IANM).Considering the tight schedules of doctors and the inconvenience of travelling ( often across the globe) to china, we have tried to make all our teaching material available through the medium of the Internet. This is the first site of its kind being launched in the world. So, doctors can simply enroll for our course at our website:- < http://www.icanm.com >, and learn the science of acupuncture as and when they feel comfortable doing so.
COURSE STRUCTURE AND PRESENTATION :-
Our site has been created using the latest technology available for the web. The course matter has been presented in well structured dropdown menus that even the most primitive users of computers and the Internet can easily navigate through to get to the information desired.
The concepts in the course have been visualized using the latest animation techniques so as to give the student a clear picture of what lies behind the concepts being taught. These animations are excellent education aids and tax a student's imagination to a bare minimum.
The course has been divided into 4 modules starting from the basic concepts behind acupuncture and then building on these concepts to the science of acupuncture, diagnosis techniques, the theory of treatment and methods of treatment.
Throughout the course, a student's progress will be monitored by subjecting him to exams taken midway through a module and at the end of it. The answers to these exams have to be submitted online itself, thus avoiding any postal charges.
