We are excited to announce that the Alberta Working Group for the Regulation of Massage Therapy of Alberta has completed the work requested by the Health Minister, and through the Transitional Council for the College of Massage Therapy (TC-CMTA) has submitted the application Formal Submission Toward the Regulation of Massage Therapy under the Health Professions Act to the Minister on October 15, 2024.

In order to provide transparency and education to members of the profession on what is included in the application, and in preparation for the four Massage Therapist Information Sessions: Regulation of Massage Therapy in Alberta events upcoming we are excited to provide the following:

We encourage members of the profession to review the application and watch the video before submitting any questions via the above link, and prior to attending one of the events. There will be opportunity for live questions at each of these events as well, however the Working Group wanted to provide you with the opportunity to submit your questions beforehand so that they might better be able to answer them in the meetings.

If you have yet to register to attend there is still time. All four events will present the same information about the application and the progress toward achieving regulation, along with an opportunity for members of the profession to ask questions about the application and the process of regulating. This is not an announcement of pending regulation.

We encourage you to only register for one event as space is very limited for the in-person sessions. Online sessions have open availability, however you must register by the deadlines listed below. Please limit your free registration to one per person and we ask that you not share any of the meeting links provided with your confirmation of registration ticket. Any duplicate tickets will be removed.
