    And really, how long can they say NO. Online line education is here and they can't ignore it for long and all other professions are using it successfully to educate thier pracitioners.

    Debra, can you send me a link to the law?

    Most massage laws do not state specifically that schools cannot utilize online learning. For example, our law states that education must be supervised. That's different than no online learning. The online course I use has a feature where instructors can generate both attendance reports and activity reports. This may be acceptable, depending on how the law is written in you state. It's worth looking into.

    No, the link did not work.

    I wonder how your law (or board members) define correspondence course.

    Not how you or I define it, but how your law defines it. Does you law have a glossary or terminology section?
