I just wanna stear this back to the original topic, if I may...the cost of seminars...

Well, Seminars are pricey, it is true. And, you must continue to upgrade your skills and knowledge as a homeopath whether or not you subscribe to a society or regulatory body.

The fact is, however, that seminars are costly to organize and deliver. They involve rental fees and permits, travel fees for the instructors, and lots of other administrative fees for people who do the "groundwork" of putting the seminar on.

Also, the person giving the seminar should be compensated for his or her time; that means time spent physically "giving" the seminar and interacting with participants, as well as all the preparation time--research efforts, document creation, information organization and any training involved (such as the time and effort involved in learning how to be an effective instructor/lecturer).

If you don't want to pay people for the work they do and the ideas they produce--which ultimately help to ease your labour burden when you apply them to your practice--then you can hardly expect to receive recognition and compensation for your own efforts, from your own patients and peers.

Right?
