Florida Mandatory Programs Set (#2)

Massage CE Program

Ethics: Practice Management

This home study program provides an overview of professionalism and scope of practice for massage therapists from the legal, educational, competency and self-accountability standpoints. The roles of professional codes of ethics and standards of practice with regard to ethical behavior and business practices are discussed within the parameters of the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB).

Establishing and managing a professional practice involves knowledge of local, state and federal requirements pertinent to business licenses and permits, insurance coverage and legal business relationships. Successful massage practices provide clear policies and procedures that define the services offered, how appointments are scheduled as well as a competitive fee structure.

For Florida therapists who are also nationally certified renewing under the latest NCBTMB guidelines, and who want to enroll in this entire set, we recommend you also enroll in the Ethics: Therapeutic Relationships program, so you can earn the required total of six hours of Ethics (including two hours regarding Standard V).
