June is always an exciting month at Vintage Remedies. I began my natural health career nearly a decade ago in a June, changed the name to Vintage Remedies in a June and began the Vintage Remedies School of Natural Health in a June – three years ago this month! So, we at Vintage Remedies feel it is an important time to celebrate and are thrilled with all of the new services we have to offer this month!
First up – we have a brand new website. We’ve always loved our beautiful and user friendly site, but after nearly two years of the same thing, we needed a fresh look. So, we got one – and we absolutely love it! It definitely reflects our commitment to healthy and natural living, and we love the calm and soothing appearance!
The new site features all of our new services and resources. We are now offering Vintage Remedies gear! Our organic, eco friendly tote features safe, natural dyes and the Vintage Remedies School of Natural Health logo – and it is the perfect size to carry around all of your Vintage Remedies textbooks! You can order them directly from us – or get a complimentary tote when you enroll in the Traditional Textbooks option of the Family Herbalist course this month.
What’s the Traditional Textbooks option? And why the Family Herbalist course? We’re now offering TWO methods of studying with us! Like holding a book in your hand? You still can. Our Traditional Textbooks option is the name of the traditional method of distance learning. You receive our high quality textbooks with all of your study material included. However, we now also have a Virtual Vintage Remedies option! With this new option, you can take advantage of our multi-media approach to learning, with a web based student portal, which provides all of your material, including downloadable projects and study helps. The technology fee included in this option is less than our book fee for the Traditional Textbooks, so you actually save money on your total enrollment fee. And, true to our tradition, you save even more when you pre-enroll in this exciting new option during the month of June! We never discount our programs, so this pre-enrollment phase is the ONLY time to ever save money on our courses! (available July 1)
All students will now have access to online testing with instant grading and 24/7 access to records, grades and testing. Our staff is still available 5 days a week during business hours to assist you as well. This exciting new feature makes our already fast turnaround for grading even faster! (We average 1-2 weeks, which is less than half the norm of 4-6 weeks for distance learning test grading!) Now, if you choose to use the online testing, your grades will be available immediately! This feature is available (at no additional cost) starting July 1 for both new and current students and is entirely optional.
We also are thrilled to announce the brand new revised edition of the Family Herbalist program. Our first and most popular program just got even better! The revised edition will be available in both the Traditional Textbooks format and the Virtual Vintage Remedies format. With the Traditional Textbooks option, students will now receive two textbooks and a student guide. The textbooks, Understanding Holistic Health and Botanical Medicine in the Home, provide the same 26 units, but in a completely revised and updated format! This new format will also be available July 1. Pre-enroll during the month of June and not only will you be one of the first to enjoy the new format, you’ll also receive a complimentary organic cotton tote to carry your textbooks with you wherever you go!
