The ACATCM recognizes that access to learning resources and services is vital for student learning and success. The ACATCM on-campus library is more than just books, rather, a resource to help students think critically, evaluate information, and apply practical skills.  

Our fully equipped treatment rooms include state-of-the-art moxibustion technology, infrared heat lamps, and high-quality acupuncture needles for day-to-day practice. All treatment rooms are fully equipped to allow residents and students to focus on administering exceptional patient-centred treatments.

Starting Fall 2022, ACATCM will be transitioning into two campus locations. One at 1910 – 20th Ave NW with free street parking, and another located at 628-12 Ave SW with paid parking options. Both locations are close to the LRT stations. 

The City of Calgary offers a low-income Calgary transit monthly pass to eligible individuals. Students can check information on eligibility and application for a low-income monthly pass here Low Income Monthly Pass (calgarytransit.com).
