The California Acupuncture College is a for-profit corporation that was originally founded in 1978 in conjunction with the National Acupuncture Association in Los Angeles, California.  It was one of the first schools in the country to begin training students to become professional acupuncturists. The CAC leads the profession of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine toward higher academic and professional standards.

The CAC mission is to integrate the principles of oriental medicine and its energetic concepts with the standards of Western Medicine.  Our vision is that by a continual melding of these medical systems that the highest level of health care can be achieved for the health and well-being of all including that of the entire planet.

Student Comments About AU

​"As we engage in discussion to address the global challenges created in health during the pandemic, I believe that my studies have positioned me in a solid position to build relationships, to find new pathways to help others, and to bring more clarity and power to the programs offered at Akamai University."
The distance education model allowed me to work one-on-one with the instructors and effectively streamline the courses to fit my teaching situation, experience and interests.

I have discovered that Akamai’s program has the same qualities as other accredited colleges, and the knowledge level is equally high.

Akamai's instructional methods focus on teamwork and discussion of the matters concerned.

I am really impressed by the contacts I have had with the professors working with me at the moment.  I have not regretted my choice of this university.

Most helpful at Akamai was the availability of the professors. I received personal attention and guidance.
Picture
"My journey of discovery with academic studies at Akamai University has provided me with a degree program that has developed strong skills in writing, research, collaboration and outreach.  Beginning with a Post Graduate diploma in CAM, I was able to bring my past studies in Integrative Health training forward into my interests for a Master's and now a Doctoral degree.  The collaborative process with other students, faculty and networks in CAM have provided me with an education that embodies a whole person approach, with a whole education approach.  My ability to market myself on the international scene in both science and research has created some wonderful projects and friendships across other university settings as well as disciplines in CAM.  I look forward to what follows the doctorate degree in continued outreach for health and wellness across the globe.
