CASE STU DY

Barbara Ann RoseITEC Diplomas

I’d been working in a job I didn’t really enjoy, and decided to follow a new direction. After a lot of hard work (and a lot of fun), I am now able to practise as a complementary therapist and am considering self-employment.

Following the ITEC courses means I’m now qualified as a massage therapist, Indian head massage therapist and reflexologist. I’m working towards my ITEC qualification in sports massage. I found both the practical and theoretical aspects of the course really useful.

I learned a lot from the other members of my class – everyone gives treatments differently, so watching someone else carry out a treatment means you can pick up different techniques.

I have had four different tutors over the last three years; all of them were supportive and passionate about their subject.

I really gained a lot from the course, and it was great to meet new people, do practical work and put my new skills into practice.

I’m so glad the courses were available to someone in my position. The courses I have done really opened up new paths, and my daughter and I can now have more comfortable futures.
