About CCNM

The Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM) is Canada’s leading naturopathic medicine education provider. CCNM offers a four-year, full-time naturopathic medicine program; the only Doctor of Naturopathy degree in Canada.

CCNM offers the first-ever naturopathic medicine bridge delivery for international medical graduates (IMGs). The IMG bridge delivery offers foreign-trained medical doctors who have made their home in Canada an opportunity to further their health care careers as naturopathic doctors.

CCNM is home to CCNM Press, a publisher of college texts, clinical reference materials, and consumer wellness guides in the field of naturopathic medicine

CCNM is Celebrating 40 Years

In 40 years, what has CCNM accomplished?

We've created the first naturopathic teaching clinic in a Canadian hospital, opened the first integrative cancer care and research centre of its kind in Eastern Canada, and advanced our understanding of naturopathic medicine through trailblazing research.

We’ve graduated 20 per cent of all NDs in North America and our alumni can be found all over the world.

We’ve published high-quality textbooks for NDs and students alike, worked alongside clinicians and professors to continuously improve our curriculum, and witnessed countless numbers of patients improve their health – and life – with naturopathic care.

The College started humbly - the simple dream of those who wanted to uphold and protect the principles and values of naturopathic medicine. Today, we offer the only Doctor of Naturopathy degree in Canada, in a jurisdiction, Ontario, that recognizes naturopathic doctors as regulated health-care professionals under the Regulated Health Professions Act.

There's no telling what the next 40 years will bring.
