103: Where the Profession Is Now (with Les Sweeney)

ABMP (the largest professional organization of massage therapists and bodyworkers in the USA) has just published the results of their regular survey of massage education programs, and it reveals some very interesting trends. Whitney discusses these and their implications with Les Sweeney, the CEO of the Professional Assist Corporation and President of the ABMP (Associated Bodywork and Massage Professionals). Topics include:

• How employment trends are changing in the field
• How are schools doing in preparing students for the diversity in our field
• What may be coming down the road for professional training in the future
• ...much more
