This means that the DC degree is accredited by one of the regional accrediting agencies, ( e.g. Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools ), or National accrediting agencies ( e.g. the New York State Board of Regents ).

Some chiropractic colleges are accredited to offer Masters and PhD degrees in related fields, such as nutrition, Oriental medicine, or acupuncture. Diplomate or Fellow ? As a general rule, as defined by the dictionary, one who receives a diploma is a diplomate. Thus, the `` Diplomate '' programs are post-doctoral programs leading to a Board examination. The successful candidate receives the degree. Whereas a medical fellowship implies completion of a post-residency subspecialty training program, in other fields, the term fellow is, generally speaking, an honorary title, usually awarded to someone who is already a diplomate, for extraordinary contributions to that specific field of study. Some agencies confer only the title of `` Fellow '' when they have no diplomate programs. Certifications recognized by the Chiropractic academic community `` Recognized '' means that the Chiropractic academic community generally recognizes these certifications as representing a program of advanced study at, or through an accredited institution, and that the holder has passed a certifying examination.

They may indicate that the Doctor has taken some proprietary course in someone 's technique, but the program may, or may not yet be taught at accredited academic institutions. Or it is taught only by the company or organization offering the `` certification ''. Degree Full Name Description BCAO Board Certified, Atlas Orthogonist This `` degree '' is bestowed upon Doctors of Chiropractic by the corporation which appears to run seminars to teach their technique. This is a body which is proprietary, in fact apparently family run, and whose programs are generally not run by accredited Chiropractic Colleges. The site does not explain under what circumstances one may be allowed to call oneself `` Board '' certified. FASBE Fellow Academy of Spinal Bio-Engineering This `` degree '' is bestowed upon Doctors of Chiropractic by the corporation which runs seminars to teach their technique.

This is a body which appears to be proprietary, and run by an individual Doctor, and whose programs are apparently not generally run by accredited Colleges, but solely by the Board itself. Other legitimate titles These certifications are not generally considered a `` professional qualification '' and therefore are not listed after one 's name nor used in advertising. This is not to say that the information is not genuine, or that the facts are incorrectly reported. Degree Full Name Description CCSS ( C ) College of Chiropractic Sports Science ( Canada ) The rationale for this is that anyone can join the college and thus this is not a credential, only `` Fellowship '' is a credential. Diplomate - NBCE or DNBCE Diplomate of the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners The rationale for this is : that all American DC 's must take and pass these exams in order to qualify for a license to practice, and thus the fact that one has done so, is not a qualification which should be used to differentiate one DC from another by education. To use this a DC must have completed Parts I - II of the NBCE prior to 1983 and may indicate that he / she `` holds NBCE Diplomate Certificate 19XX. '' Completing the boards after 1983 does not allow a DC to use this as credentials. MACSM Member, American College of Sports Medicine The rationale for this is : that anyone who applies and pays dues will be accepted as a member of the American College of Sports Medicine and thus being a member is not a differentiating professional qualification for professionals. Unrecognized certifications These credentials are generally recognized only by the companies which created them, and are simply otherwise non-existent. Degree Full Name Description CHIRMD Presumably Chiropractic Medical Doctor ? This recently manufactured `` degree '' seems to have been simply manufactured by a website advertising Doctors nationally, called `` Healthgrades ''. If one googles the `` degree '' all those using it are listed on that site. References Jump up ^ National Univ. of Health Sciences Archived 2009 - 12 - 13 at the Wayback Machine.
