Maryland Continuing Education Requirements

Please understand that massage laws change frequently and vary from state to state. We will try to provide you with the most current information possible. It is our understanding that currently, Maryland massage therapists need 24 CE hours of education every 2 years for license renewal and must include:

• 1 CE hour of Diversity or Cultural Competency
• 3 CE hours of Ethics - Any of our 3 CE hour ethics courses will work
• 3 CE hours of Communicable Disease including HIV/AIDS
• 17 CE hours in massage related courses

We have packages set up for MD Therapists to filfill the required coursework at a discounted rate. Add 17 additional hours (such as our Orthopedic Massage course) and your CE hours are complete! Mandatory packages include:

• MD Ethics, HIV, and Diversity Package 1 - 7 CE hours
• MD Ethics, HIV, and Diversity Package 2 - 7 CE hours

Because we are an NCBTMB approved provider, all of our courses are accepted for Maryland license renewal. You can verify this information or contact the state of Maryland with further questions by visiting the Maryland Board of Massage.

Please note that all of our courses can be used for NCBTMB (National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork) recertification, our approved provider number is 409296-00. You may also use any of our CE courses for renewal with organizations such as the AMTA (American Massage Therapy Association) and ABMP (Associated Bodywork and Massage Professionals).
