CRMTA

CRMTA widely recognizes all Seminars for Health courses for CEC credits.

A maximum of 10 of the 30 credits can be secondary credits. Your 3-year cycle is determined by your CRMTA membership start date.

Primary credits are allocated to in-class, hands-on continuing education courses that directly relate to massage therapy. 1 credit is allocated per hour, to a maximum of 20 credits per course / workshop.

Secondary credits are allocated to courses on modalities that enhance a massage or on one’s professional development in the field of massage. Courses may include topics such as ethics, communication, additional modalities, etc. Participation in some CRMTA events also count towards secondary credits.
