Giving you the skill set and knowledge to treat individuals who have sustained injury or suffer from soft tissue dysfunction in all areas of the body that include:

Along with hosting your course content, the online platform will become a point of reference for you when it is often needed the most - when you are preparing from your practical assessment or later working with your paying clients as a Sports Massage Therapist.

Course Assessments

 

It is important when enrolling on to our course that you have a clear timeline to completion and an understanding of what you need to do to pass. As soon as you enrol, your course support tutor will be in touch with you to go through your assessment plan. This will essentially be your timeline to completion and will set you some motivation with your studies and targets to aim for. The course consists of both online and practical assessments.

Online Assessments 

 

Our online end-of-unit assessments can all be done from the comfort of your own home when you are ready to do so. Your Personal Tutor will be at hand to help with any revision and to get everything organised for you. 

 

Once you complete a unit online, it can be assessed immediately, allowing you to do the assessment whilst the knowledge is fresh and to save you hanging around for an exam. 

 

Some units will be passed by completing some of your course portfolio (Learner Assessment Record), written worksheets and Client Case-Study. 

 

Online assessments include: 

  • Online Assessments
  • Written Worksheets
  • Client Case-study 

Practical Assessments
