Hi I’m moving to Fla and I have a Ca license and I have been doing massage for over 20 years. At that time, the school I went to did not offer 500 hr programs so I do not have 500 hrs from one school but I have been nationally certified since 94 and have continued education. Do you know if continued education will apply to the 500 hrs required? Also I will be interested in purchasing your package. Thanks for any help you might provide.
Hi Angela,
Unfortunately CE hours do not count. The best option you have is if you can find a school that would transfer you original program hours and allow you to make up the hours where you are deficient so you can graduate from a 500 hour program. You can contact the Florida Board to learn exactly how that works. I wish I had better news!
