Welcome to ACHS's Alumni & Career Services Hub
ACHS is committed to your success and here to provide resources, coaching, and professional development opportunities to help you build your professional network and put your studies into practice.
Our Mission
The ACHS Alumni & Career Services Department is dedicated to collaborating with students and all departments across ACHS to provide expertise in career exploration and planning, goal-setting, and cultivating connections and experiences to support professional success.
Our mission is to encourage and support students to blend the knowledge and skills acquired in their programs with our career coaching to find employment in a field or position that fully encompasses their values, education, and abilities.
About Our Graduates
ACHS graduates are passionate about health and wellness and having a positive impact on the communities they serve by improving their personal health and wellness, supporting family and friends, and making a difference as holistic health practitioners and educators around the world.
ACHS works to ensure curriculum is aligned to prepare graduates with essential skills for achieving their professional goals. Research done by QA Commons (https://theqacommons.org/) identified 8 Essential Employability Qualities (EEQs) to be universally needed across different careers and jobs to drive employment success. These EEQs inform curriculum development at ACHS. Learn more about the EEQs online here.
