How would you like to study? On-Campus or Correspondence

If you choose to study On-campus you will attend a timetabled class and experience two days of hands-on training.

If you choose to study by Correspondence you simply study at home at your own pace and in your own time using dvd's and training manuals. It's just like having the Lecturer at home with you and guess what, you can hit the repeat button as many times as you like.

As well as being the first subject of both the Certificate and Diploma training, the Introductory Massage Course can also help you to decide on your dream career - it can really be an inspiration! Or, you may just want to learn something new to practice on family and friends!

Massage careers are well suited to people seeking work-life balance. Get out of the nine-to-five rat race and move into a career that rewards you and everyone you touch.

Over the years the Australian College of Massage has successfully helped thousands of people like you find their own special vocation in the massage industry. For some, massage remains their hobby, but for many others it also becomes their career.

"The structure of the course was well established and sequential. What an informative, awe-inspiring, exhilarating experience. The title “massage course” does not do this rare experience justice. Thank you to every level of the Australian College of Massage - admin, lecturers, founders and students. I will definitely be recommending ACM highly to everyone."
Andjela Pecotic (Chiropractic Student)
