Your Accreditation,
Put to Work
A seal on your website is where we start. From there, accreditation with us is built to move the numbers that matter to your school: how many students you enroll, and how ready your graduates are to actually work.
Elevating educational standards in natural wellness. Transform your educational institution into a globally recognized leader in natural wellness education.
AANWP/ANWPB Accreditation provides the third-party international recognition your school needs to stand out in today’s competitive wellness education landscape.
Our comprehensive accreditation program goes beyond simple recognition – it’s a complete ecosystem designed to elevate your institution’s credibility while providing tangible benefits for both your school and your graduates. With over 600 years of combined natural wellness experience backing our standards, AANWP accreditation represents the gold standard in wellness education recognition.
What AANWP Accreditation Gives Your Program
-
Your graduates become credentialed, not just certified
Every graduate of your accredited program is pre-qualified for AANWP Board Certification, with no exam and no additional coursework. They finish with an independent, third-party credential behind their name, not only a certificate from the school that taught them.
-
A credential they can prove instantly
Board certification is issued as a verifiable digital credential: downloadable, printable, and shareable to any platform, with a public verification page anyone can check in seconds. Anyone can claim a certification. Your graduates can prove theirs.
-
A legal path to practice
U.S. graduates are pre-qualified for GEHA ecclesiastical licensing, which provides a defined, legal scope of practice as a wellness professional in all 50 states. Your program stops being education alone and becomes the start of a working career.
-
Board certification titles matched to your programs
Your graduates certify under titles that reflect what you actually teach, so the credential matches the education behind it. If you do not see a title that fits your curriculum, tell us and we will add it.
-
Approved CEU provider status, automatically
Every accredited school is automatically approved education for ANWPB continuing education credit, with emblems for your website and marketing.
-
A directory listing that sends you students
Your program is listed in the Holistic Health Link directory, and your ad appears on member dashboards across our network.
-
Income, not just expense
Join our affiliate program and earn a flat $25 every time one of your graduates board certifies, with no cap. As an example, some of our schools earn an extra $500 or more per month simply because their graduates certify.
What Sets Us Apart
Accredited schools receive an onboarding playbook that teaches your enrollment team how to talk about the full path a student is buying, with call frameworks, email templates, and ready-to-send copy.
The business side is where most wellness educators feel least sure of themselves. We help you handle it, so you can guide your graduates with confidence and keep them on solid ground.
A complete toolkit for putting your accreditation to work: promotional copy, a graduate guide, an internal team guide, a legalities presentation, and practical resources for the questions your graduates will bring you.
A real person answers when you or your graduates need assistance or if you are unsure how to handle a situation. Our team is helpful and responsive.
