Continuing education is a key element in demonstrating a personal and public commitment to increased competency in one's profession. Since it's inception AAMT has designed the Approved Provider Program to be a source of the highest quality in continuing education for massage therapists. As the profession grows, the criteria for the AAMT Approved Provider Program Application continue to improve and grow with it.

The application process has two purposes - it allows the AAMT Education Committee to gather the necessary information to make a decision regarding your application. However, just as important, it can help you the applicant to improve the quality of your course presentation. Ultimately the creation and support of quality continuing education courses is AAMT's goal. CPE activities should promote professional goals related to the massage therapy industry in order to increase competency and excellence in the AAMT membership. The CPE approved provider courses should be programs that cannot be obtained from initial or foundational massage therapy courses. They should be characterised by program designs that offer newly emerging concepts, principles, theories and research in massage therapy, bodywork or health care.
