It Pays to be ABMP Certified

Great New Benefits for Our Certified Members

By Karrie Osborn

Certified membership with ABMP has always been a great deal, but we just made it better!

To make the Certified member experience even more advantageous for you, we’ve added a whole new list of exclusive Certified benefits.

In November, ABMP unveiled for our Certified members a new portfolio of rich resources that includes access to greater discounts, greater resources, and greater benefits than ever before.
 “We realized that ABMP Certified members have made a commitment through additional continuing education (Certified membership requires 16 hours of continuing education every two years), and felt that we needed to commit further to providing outstanding resources,” says ABMP President Les Sweeney.
“I am biased, but I believe there is outstanding value in being an ABMP member in general,” Sweeney says. “For those professionals who seek to get the most out of their career and membership, ABMP Certified is the best option.”

All the Great Benefits You Already Enjoy …
And So Much More!
The new and improved Certified membership includes all the great ABMP benefits our professional members receive, as well as some amazing new offerings.

• A logo specifically designed for Certified members
Display it proudly on your free website. Your professionalism is conveyed in the decal and wall certificate.

• Free eBooks
Start with our first offering, Cancer and the Human Connection, and continue with two new eBooks each year. Take a quiz on the content afterward and earn two continuing education hours.

• Preferred listing on Massagetherapy.com’s Referral Service
ABMP Certified listings land at the top of the results when clients seek out a therapist in your area.

• Discounts exclusive to ABMP Certified members
Certified members can receive discounts up to 25 percent off
from some of the industry’s leading providers.

More To Come ...
All these new resources are just a starting point, Sweeney says. “In 2014, you’ll get access to a quarterly download of music for your practice—for free, just because you’re a Certified member. We look forward to adding even more to the Certified benefit suite in the coming year.”
