The Association of Accredited Naturopathic Medical Colleges (AANMC) was established in February 2001, to propel and foster the naturopathic medical profession by actively supporting the academic efforts of accredited and recognized schools of naturopathic medicine. AANMC-member schools offer six accredited naturopathic medical programs at seven campus locations in North America. These superior colleges are accredited by the Council on Naturopathic Medical Education and meet both federal and academic standards.
