Internet Modernizes Continuing Education

“Distance education is a growing trend in virtually every field that exists,” Judith Koch Lawson, director of education for a home-study Web site told MASSAGE Magazine. “People are earning college degrees completely online … and to try to halt this trend would be like trying to outlaw cell phones or computers. It just isn’t going to happen.”

The growing acceptance of the Internet as a mainstream vehicle for all types of education is especially good news for those massage therapists who may live in remote or rural areas. It also makes earning CEUs easier for those bodyworkers who may be disabled, as well as any massage therapists on a tight budget or a busy schedule.
