Founded in 1956, it is the oldest naturopathic programs in North America that is accredited by the Council on Naturopathic Medical Education.
Until July 1, 2006, it was known as the National College of Naturopathic Medicine (NCNM), and until June 2016 was known as the National College of Natural Medicine. The school has approximately 553 students.
NCNM has three schools: The School of Naturopathic Medicine, the School of Classical Chinese medicine and the School of Research and Graduate Studies. It offers four professional graduate degree programs: The Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine (ND), Master of Science in Integrative Medicine Research (MSiMR), Master of Science in Oriental Medicine (MSOM), and Master of Acupuncture (MAc). These programs include preparation and clinical practice in Holism.
The School of Research and Graduate Studies offers a two-year Master of Science in Integrative Medical Research (MSiMR), a program for students interested in complementary and alternative medicine.

Students receive training in herbalism, acupuncture, moxibustion, Asian bodywork, qigong and nutrition.
