What do Australasian College graduates do with their qualifications? What is the most common and what is the most unusual career path you’ve heard of?
Graduates use their training to become self-employed herbalists, natural health consultants, or natural health counselors. Many open health food or natural health stores. Some become soap makers. Others produce aromatherapy products such as massage oil, bath balls, etc. There is a huge spectrum of opportunity in which trained people can forge a career. Many students also adjunct their knowledge to an existing career—we have a prison warden using aromatherapy in her jail. Among traditional doctors studying herbalism we’ve seen psychologists use homeobotanicals. We’ve also seen pharmacists, registered nurses, and licensed massage therapists study everything from iridology and aromatherapy to herbalism. We’re sure there are some rather unique endeavors taken on by our graduates. Visit the Natural Health Directory to see what some of those paths might be.
