Programs developed with the help of experienced practitioners
We designed our degree and diploma programs with the help of a program advisory committee made up of experienced professionals in the massage therapy field. Committee members know from personal experience the skills and training that are needed for success. They ensure that our courses and requirements are up-to-date and include the latest developments in the field.
