The International Advanced Training Course (IATC) for traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is an international training program sponsored by the Chinese government’s Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST).

The TCM-IATC is organized by the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences (CACMS), in collaboration with the UCLA Center for East-West Medicine (CEWM) of University of California, Los Angeles. Together, we are championing the globalization of TCM outside of China by developing programs that focus on integrating the greatest learnings from both Chinese and western medicine to improve healthcare around the world. Our programs focus on sharing the latest developments in TCM clinical practice and research, supported by the latest science and technology.

The program strives to:

•   Share the latest advancements, best practices, and achievements in TCM with western medicine professionals around the world

•   Help individuals and communities worldwide live healthier lives through integrative medicine

•   Disseminate TCM globally, promoting the strategy of China's "One Belt One Road" initiative
