Note: All courses, information, approvals, and pricing are subject to change. Refunds are made on an individual basis at the discretion of Massage CE Learning Tree. Courses that have been issued a certificate will not be refunded. Course bundles with completed courses in the bundle will not be issued a refund. Approval for each course/bundle in each state is not guaranteed. Even if the provider is directly approved by NCBTMB, not all courses may be accepted by your Board (provider numbers are on each certificate regardless of approval). We review each individual state board website at least twice a year to search for state board updates regarding license renewals. State boards do not contact CEProviders when changes are made to state board requirements or course acceptance. We offer online courses only and we do not offer webinars, live, in-person, mailed, or video options. You must verify all information, requirements, renewal information, accepted and not accepted courses, number of hours, and specific categories required by your massage renewing entity/board. The above information is on a “state” level. Be sure to check your local city and county regulations, as they may require continuing education or have specific licensing and/or renewal requirements. Laws and Rules frequently change. We try to provide you with the most accurate, up to date requirements but the state boards do not contact us directly when changes are made to their requirements.. The Individual State Course bundles are created for your convenience only with the information we gather from the state board websites twice a year when we review state board information. We do our best to create these bundles from information that is available on their website when we review for updates. It is ultimately your responsibility to ensure acceptance. If you see any errors, please contact us so that we may correct the information listed above.
