Home Study

An integral part of the course is time spent in home study, of both theory and practice.  An important feature of this Diploma course is the continuous assessment and support of the students.  The School expects a high level of student commitment throughout the course, both in and out of School.

Examinations

At the end of the course students sit a 3 hour Massage theory examination paper, plus a 90 minute practical exam, where massage techniques as well as client care and standards of Health, Safety and Hygiene are assessed.  Students also need to submit written evidence of completing 50 hours of massage case studies.

Qualifications

On satisfactory completion of the course, successful candidates are awarded the Aromatherapy and Allied Practitioners' Association's (A.A.P.A.) Diploma in Massage, as well as a Diploma in Therapeutic Massage from The Sue Lincoln School of Holistic Therapies.
