Do you have trouble understanding Chemistry?  
For many this is an area that requires more training.  Rosemary Caddy has a really fun and interesting way of making chemistry understandable for those of us who are not chemists.

The Chemistry Home Study Course will give you the nuts and bolts to understand chemistry in far greater depth.  Inclusive with this workshop you will receive a copy of Rosemary Caddy”s Essential Oils in Colour Book, the workshop workbook and a CD Power Point Presentation that takes you through the material.  On completion and submission of the optional test a Certificate of Completion (18 CEUs) is awarded.

What are the Caddy Essential Oils in Colour Chemistry Workshops?
Caddy Profiles are a colourful new way of looking at the essential oils used in Aromatherapy. Each profile gives an instant impression of the oil’s qualities, while also showing the oil’s typical make-up in terms of 11 chemical families. These profiles will enhance your understanding of the nature of the oils and provide simple means of comparing their properties.

This Chemistry Workshop make Chemistry approachable and fun for all.

In addition to this in class workshop, the West Coast Institute of Aromatherapy also offers the Caddy Chemistry Workshop as a Home Study Course.
