Australian College of Massage

Studying at Home

Australian College of Massage is leading the way in massage training throughout Australia and across the globe. Our focus is on offering the most comprehensive and inspiring massage courses available. We are leading the way and shaping the future of the massage education industry. We are specialists in massage. That is our sole focus and we are exceptionally good at it.

Australian College of Massage recognises that not all students are able to attend classes on campus or at the times available. This may be due to geography, health issues or work commitments. For these reasons ACM offers training by distance education.

Australian College of Massage has been able to provide distance education because we know how to educate and we specialise in massage training. We care about your education and your success. We believe that everyone should be able to study massage, regardless of their individual circumstances.

Australian College of Massage distance education students have access to outstanding support. Students can contact the College at any time by email, telephone, fax or mail with one single point of contact.

Australian College of Massage distance education courses and subjects are equivalent to on campus courses in both content and qualification received. All subjects are studied at home and attendance for examinations occurs during Massage Practice 1 & 2.

Each subject contains a comprehensive study pack incorporating everything to facilitate successful, independent, self-paced learning. Learning resources include detailed photographic manuals, textbooks, DVD´s and CD´s.
