Nevada Massage Therapy Continuing Education Requirements:
Nevada requires 24 hours of Continuing Education Courses every two years.
Nevada massage therapists must take one 2-hour course on human-trafficking awareness, but it is only mandatory during the first renewal cycle after initial licensure (the “first licensing period”). For every renewal after that, the Board still requires 24 total CE hours including 2 hours in “ethics”; a human-trafficking course may be used to satisfy those ethics hours, but it is no longer singled out as a separate must-take topic. We have a 2 hour Human Trafficking course found here.
Nevada Massage Therapy Continuing Education Courses Accepted:
As NCBTMB approved providers, our Massage Therapy online courses are fully valid for you to legally practice, and for any continuing education requirements you might have. Please note that the NCBTMB does not recognize Human Trafficking as an approved category, so any human trafficking course you complete will us will not apply to any NCBTMB renewal requirements you may have.
