What do the different qualification Levels in massage mean?
All awarding bodies (BTEC, ITEC, VTCT, etc) have to use the same criteria when approving qualification Levels and so they must all be equivalent to each other. An L4 qualification at one body cannot be equivalent to an L5 at another.
Some training providers offers a pathway up through the grades but this means you learn anatomy and massage at a very basic L3 which is not sufficiently for the clinical skills needed at L5. Our ISRM/BTEC qualification is fully integrated at Level 5 and teaches the foundation subjects at the right clinical level needed for the advanced training to follow.
