For practitioners, NCBTMB certification is much more than a credential. It’s the cornerstone of a successful career. Because even if you work in a state that does not require certification, the NCBTMB credential establishes you as a dedicated professional with the knowledge and skills to uphold high standards of excellence. To become certified, a massage therapist or bodyworker must:
•Complete a minimum of 500 hours of instruction
•Demonstrate mastery of core skills, abilities and knowledge
•Pass a standardized NCBTMB exam
•Uphold NCBTMB’s Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics
•Complete continuing education for recertification
And the benefits are immeasurable, national certification:
•Represents the highest standard in the field
•Communicates a commitment to safe, ethical practice
•Provides a competitive edge
•Gains visibility and credibility
•Increases employment opportunities within/between states
•Allows reimbursement by some insurance companies
•Reassures clients and employers
•Includes a listing in NCBTMB’s Find a Practitioner resource
•Establishes practitioners as healthcare providers on par with other professionals requiring certification
