In 1999, WHO published the Guidelines on basic training and safety in acupuncture. However, various backgrounds of acupuncture service providers were addressed inadequately in this document, and there is a lack of a defined career pathway for acupuncture providers. This updated benchmark document aims to reduce the gaps by setting up required leaning modules for each category of acupuncture service providers at different levels, so that individual practices and practitioners can be compared, evaluated and accredited. This document offers a useful reference point to evaluate acupuncture service providers, which will benefit policymakers, health workers, education providers and the public in general. It forms an integral part of the updated benchmark series, targeting key modalities of traditional medicine intervention and contributing to the establishment of a reference toolkit for countries.

This book differs from other texts on acupuncture points in that it is not concerned with the basic theories of TCM. Rather, it is a formulary and clinical reference developed from the clinical tradition of Ching Tan An, Tsang Tien Chi, and Tin Yau So. Dr So related the practicality of point use and emphasises the selection of points for the treatment of particular symptoms and conditions. For each point he lists: clinical effects, disease, symptoms and energetic conditions. The book has a superb indexto aid access to information.

Anthroposophic medicine (AM) is a form of traditional, complementary and integrative medicine (TCI), integrated into conventional medicine in outpatient practices and hospitals. As more countries begin to set policies and regulatory frameworks for the practice of TCI, policy-makers require information to make informed decisions, including evaluations of the quality of practices, difficulties that may be encountered, and suggested ways in which these can be addressed. These are the first benchmarks for training in AM and reflect what the AM community considers to be minimum training for professionals to practice any of the AM disciplines, in ways which ensure consumer protection and patient safety, including quality assurance, and the effectiveness and proper use of AM.
