Gain a Systems Edge
Systems Health® provides the foundational knowledge for health education: the missing link bridging traditional systems of medicine with engineering systems science – uncovered by world-renowned systems scientist Dr. Shiva Ayyadurai, MIT PhD – organized into an integrative curriculum of self-paced online courses, in-person or live online courses, and experiential web-based labs, prerequisites to three certification programs. Regardless of one’s background, be it a conventional health professional i.e. Cardiologist, Neurosurgeon, MD, Nurse, etc.; an alternative medicine practitioner i.e. ND, Yoga teacher, chiropractor, health coach, etc.; or, a non-health practitioner i.e. homemaker, finance professional, marketer, entrepreneur, etc., Systems Health® provides an educational system, technology platform, and ongoing mentoring and support to enable a new systems paradigm for health education.
