The 500-hour Midline Integrated Bodywork Program prepares those who are seriously focused on bodywork as a profession. The program is designed as a whole with each class building upon the previous. The Integrated Bodywork Program is designed to lead an entry-level student through 500 hours massage therapy and bodywork training. In order to receive a Certificate of Completion for this program, all classes (8) must be completed.

For those who have taken course work at other schools those classes may apply towards our program. The director will review the student's record to determine eligibility for admission into the appropriate level class and where to begin.

Our Integrated Bodywork Program is designed to meet basic standards for passing the National Certification Test (NCBTMB). Completing the Beginning Bodywork Program will meet the minimum standards set by many cities. By completing the entire 500 hour program you will meet the standard set by most employers in the industry and be eligible to test with the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB). For those who have had prior training at other massage schools and need more classes to meet NCBTMB standards, the director will review the student's record to determine eligibility for admission into the appropriate level class.

Course Registration and Payment for the Integrated Bodywork Program courses.

• All courses at Midline School of Integrated Bodywork require an Enrollment Agreement that must be signed by the first class.
• Full payment must also be received by the first day of class.
• Each Agreement includes a $100 non-refundable registration fee.

Withdrawal and Refund Policy for the Integrated Bodywork Program courses.

• A student has the right to cancel a signed enrollment agreement or withdraw from a class at any time.  
• Cancellation of the enrollment agreement or withdrawal from the class will occur when the student gives written notice to the school.  
• The refund calculations will be based upon the date the written notice is received, if delivered in person, or from the date the notice is deposited, with pre-paid postage, in the mail.  
• If an Enrollment Agreement has been signed and the student withdraws before the first class the full tuition minus the registration fee will be refunded.  
• The refund will be calculated as follows: The registration fee ($100) is subtracted from the tuition cost. The rest of the class tuition is then divided by the total number of class hours. This gives the hourly charge for the class. The number of hours the student has attended is multiplied by the hourly charge for the class. The registration fee is then added to this total in order to derive the amount owed by the student. The refund shall be any amount in excess of the amount owed that has been paid by the student.
• In the event that a student is asked to leave a class for violation of the school’s code of ethics, a refund will be given using the same criteria and formula listed above. The date upon receiving the written notice of dismissal from the school shall serve as the date used for refund calculations.
