Are you the next AFMTE Educator of the Year?
The Alliance for Massage Therapy Education is now accepting nominations for our 2024 Educator of the Year Awards.
The Alliance published the NTESP Core Competencies for Massage Therapy Teachers in 2013. This document includes ten standards, each of which describe the knowledge, skills, and attitudes that form the basis for effective and successful teaching.
To recognize educators who exemplify these standards, we have also established the Educator of the Year Award, which recognizes one teacher in a school setting and one continuing education provider.
This award honors excellence in massage and bodywork education and serves to foster a culture that supports raising the standards of excellence in massage and bodywork education. The recipients are chosen based on their experience, teacher training completed, and how well they meet the core competency standards.
Nominations are due on or before May 15, 2024.
- 1 Year Teacher Membership in the AFMTE
