Massage Therapy students kept their fingers on the pulse of the industry with a recent visit from their industry’s provincial regulator.
On April 15, Maureen Boon, Registrar and CEO of the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario, visited the College’s Welland Campus to speak to Massage Therapy students about the governing body of the profession they will soon join. Her presentation offered an inside look at the CMTO’s role in the industry and provided a forum for students to ask questions.
“We sincerely appreciate the visit from Maureen Boon, Registrar and CEO of the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario, for engaging with our students and faculty on the regulations, standards, and responsibilities that uphold public trust and advance the Massage Therapy profession,” said Michelle Thibault, Associate Dean, School of Allied Health.
“The strong engagement and genuine interest demonstrated by our students made the visit especially impactful, highlighting the importance of connecting education with professional practice and the shared commitment to excellence that defines Niagara College and the profession.”
