Other events
Peer Assessment
June 2008
Approximately every five years, each active registered massage therapist in Ontario goes through a peer assessment as part of the provincial quality assurance program of the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario. A designated peer assessor visits the therapist at work and reports back to the Quality Assurance Committee. Peer assessment helps assure both therapists and the public that each therapist is operating according to the standards established by our regulatory body. My peer assessment was completed in June of 2008 and I expect to be assessed again within five years.
