Class Schedules
The institution operates on a non-traditional schedule. FICAM’s programs offer training in-house and at a distance using its tailored series of audio CDs, books and curriculum designed to assist students through the process of the programming. There will be weekly classes and workshops available on-campus or on-line to provide students with experimental models to enhance their training. Over a three year period (CAM program only), students will engage in a series of lessons independently and/or with a partner, keeping journals of their experiences, submitting assignments on material covered, communicating with staff on a regular basis and attending intensive residential training at the Quantum Healing Center in downtown Delray Beach for two weekends per quarter over three years of training. Students are expected to submit, either by email or fax, their assignments, journal entries and questions/discussions as well as the answers to the questions in the syllabus for each course as part of our on-going supervision and evaluation. The training will culminate quarterly into in-house group lessons in which students will demonstrate techniques learned, share experiences with classmates to further their learning within the group. These quarterly classes will be available to students in an online video archive or audio file.
Course schedules will be posted on the school website for students to follow. Residential training weekends will take place Friday evenings from 7:00 – 10:00 pm, and Saturday and Sunday from 9:00am through 5:00pm with meal breaks unless otherwise announced.

Instructional Methods
The instructional methods at FICAM will incorporate a wide variety of nontraditional instruction that will be consistent with the abilities, educational skills, experience and needs of the students enrolled in the programs.
In addition to the eight yearly weekend training intensives utilizing standard modalities of classroom study through lecturing, discussion groups and demonstration, students will be provided specially designed training modules in interactive audio training format. These training modules guide students through step-by-step training processes to understand the depths of knowledge and application on first a personal level. Additionally, these modules establish partnering with other students to do practice sessions under the supervision of the instructor.
Students will be provided necessary space to use needed audio equipment to listen to these programs and then to practice them.
Students will be provided examination questions to be answered in written form and then submitted through either the internet, by mail or in person. After the student feels they have gained the competency required for each course, the student is required to demonstrate his/her competency skills, and the course instructor will verify whether the student has achieved the goals of that class.
Each student shall have their own student file which will keep a full record of his/her progress and teacher comments as well as copies of all responses to the student’s written questions and comments.
There will be on-going weekly classes conducted in conjunction with the Quantum Healing Center to provide in-depth theory and hands-on training to address the specific subjects of each semester’s classes. Students unable to attend these on-going classes will be provided an opportunity to see these classes either live or on demand on the internet as videos or recorded in audio. Each of these classes will be made available in one format or another.
Students will then have the opportunity through direct e-mails, chat rooms, study groups and/or phone conferences to further deepen their understanding of the materials being studied.
