Y our delegates are looking for position statements!

Our delegates are attending the National Assembly of Delegates (AOD) at the end of October in Indianapolis. We'd like to get your opinion of online education as it pertains to palpation/hands-on technique.  
 
Potential position statement for the AMTA:
 
Idea proposal:  Online education is an appropriate method to deliver curriculum content for  
non-psychomotor subjects in massage therapy entry-level training and continuing education.  
 
Discussion topic (Should be in the form of an open-ended question.)  
1. What specifically does "speaking the same language" mean in relation to massage therapy  
becoming more integrated in healthcare?  
 
Discussion topic  
2. As massage therapists, how do we show the measure/accomplishments of our advanced studies  
and skills in massage education to healthcare professionals and the public?
   
 
Please send your opinions and suggestions to develop this or other position statements to [email protected].
