The purpose of this training manual is to guide
you through Step 1 - Independent Study. There is much learning material
for you to go through with diligence, the purpose of which is to prepare you
for your hand's-on training, Step 1 Quiz, Final Written and Field Exams, and
an academic understanding of NHC. The more you bolster your understanding
of NHC principles, the more you will get out of your training in the field.
Your library of educational materials is something you can return to again and
again during training, and even after you've graduated. If you want to be the
best practitioner you can be, then Step 1 is the foundation you will need to
build upon.
The following course text books include a brief of each book followed by a
True/False quiz. The purpose of the quizzes is to aid you in understanding the
material, which will help you to develop a working language of NHC. This will
enable you to speak and communicate in our language with other ISNHCP
students and practitioners. It will also make you more effective in explaining
NHC to your clients.
