Your Massage Therapy Career Starts at Vicars!
Massage therapy is a meaningful healthcare career that give you the freedom to work where and when you choose. It’s a well-paid, flexible profession for active, caring people.
We offer an accredited two-year RMT diploma program that meets Canada’s highest education standards. A Vicars diploma opens doors—across Alberta and beyond.
Why Choose Vicars?
We are fully accredited by CMTCA
CMTCA accreditation means your education meets the same standards as massage therapy schools in Ontario, BC, and other regulated provinces. Your diploma travels with you.
Our blended learning gives you real flexibility
Classroom time, online coursework, and supervised clinic hours—designed for people who have responsibilities and interests that mean they are not free to be in the classroom from 9 to 5 all week. The monthly schedule is often chosen by students who live outside easy commuting distance from our Edmonton and Calgary campuses. That’s our blended learning model.
Vicars students can apply for financial aid
Postsecondary education is an investment. Grants, bursaries, interest-free and low-interest loans to cover tuition and living expenses are available in most provinces. Our financial aid experts will help you understand your options and find the solution that works for you.
Ask us about our own financial supports. For example, at Vicars, you can choose to pay your tuition in no-fee, no-interest installments, and we have grants to help make commuting from BC more affordable.
Vicars grads are set up for success
You’ll be ready to work as soon as you graduate—and in demand! Successful clinic owners seek out Vicars therapists in particular, and many students have job offers before they graduate. Others start their own clinics as soon as they finish school.
