Massage therapy license requirements vary from state to state, and the laws are constantly changing. It's our current understanding that, in Delaware, "Licensed Massage Therapists" are required to complete 24 hours of massage therapy continuing education every 2 years for professional license renewal. "Certified Massage Technicians" are required to complete 12 hours of massage therapy continuing education every 2 years for professional license renewal.
Licensed Massage Therapists can apply a maximum of 12 hours from our home study courses towards the total 24 hour renewal requirement.
Certified Massage Technicians can apply a maximum of 6 hours from our home study courses towards the total 12 hour renewal requirement.
The Delaware Board of Massage will not accept any programs related to animal massage.
It is our understanding that the Delaware Board of Massage will accept "Core" content courses for 50% credit, and "Elective" content courses for 25% credit.
A “Core course” means a continuing education course with a subject matter within the “practice of massage and bodywork,” which contributes to the professional competency of the massage/bodywork therapist or massage technician. Core courses must be designed to maintain, improve, or expand skills and knowledge or to develop new and relevant skills and knowledge.
An “Elective course” means a continuing education course with a subject matter that is outside the “practice of massage and bodywork,” which does not directly contribute to the professional competency of the massage/bodywork therapist or massage technician. Elective courses must have one of the following subject matters: modalities outside the “practice of massage and bodywork,” personal growth and self-improvement, business management, anatomy, or physiology.
If you would like to verify this information, or have further questions regarding your massage therapy continuing education requirements, we suggest contacting the Delaware Board of Massage directly. The telephone number for the Delaware Board is 302-744-4500 or visit their website at http://www.dpr.delaware.gov.
Remember, the Institute for Integrative Healthcare Studies is approved by the NCBTMB as a continuing education Approved Provider (#049478-00). All of our continuing education programs can be used for your National Certification renewal.
You may also use our credits for other organizations you belong to such as the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA) or Associated Bodywork and Massage Professionals (ABMP).
