Inspiring Conversations
The Educational Congress is a time to learn, listen, be heard, and above all, get inspired! Connect with massage educators, directors, publishers, authors and leading industry players from around the country!
Human Connections
The #1 benefit attendees of our Congress identify is by and large NETWORKING. As massage therapy and bodywork educators, we know the value of in-person connections.
Fellowship & Fun
We love to admit it: our conferences are not only important professionally, but they’re also downright FUN events to attend. Historic Philadelphia promises to be a venue like no other. We hope you’ll join us!
Setting Standards That Matter
Massage therapy and bodywork are in a state of transition, and so is its education.
Massage therapy and bodywork continue to evolve in the face of diverse and shifting demands. As public awareness and use of massage therapy and bodywork continually grows, massage therapists may need to be adaptable to complex clients and settings, all while maintaining a tradition of promoting relaxation and healing.
So, too, is bodywork education changing. The Alliance is working hard to promote standards that work for massage therapy and bodywork educators: and we need the diversity of the profession represented. As the AFMTE begins teacher certification, now more than ever the Educational Congress is a critical forum for educators and key stakeholders to connect and converse about the standards that affect us all.
