As a massage therapist myself I understand the value of being able to learn and earn CE when and where it fits with my schedule and I’m thrilled to help bring education from the leaders in the field directly to our members through our on-demand online courses. At 60–90 minutes in length, it’s easy to fit outstanding education into your schedule!”
