Unlimited Onboard CEs!
Enjoy as many (non-concurrent) CE classes as you want during the cruise! Our courses are designed to enhance your massage therapy skills and knowledge. Classes are offered as either one-day intensive sessions or multi-day courses.
CE Approval:
All courses are approved for by National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB):
- LMT Tax Workshop is approved for 3 live, non-contact hours.

If you are licensed in more than one state, hours may be used toward multiple states.
While most states accept NCBTMB-approved courses, individual state licensing boards have the final say as to which courses are in the scope of practice for massage therapists and approved in their state. Therapists are responsible for verifying their state’s specific CE requirements.
These courses are not currently approved for CE credit in Louisiana or Mississippi.
Who Should Take These Classes?
Who should take this class?
Classes are specifically intended for licensed massage therapists. Only students enrolled in the class may attend.
This course is open to massage therapy students approaching graduation. Please note: While these CE hours typically do not apply toward future license renewals, the additional certification serves as a valuable credential.
Healthcare professionals licensed for touch therapies (e.g., nurses, physical therapists, chiropractors) may take this course for educational purposes only. You may check with your state board to confirm if it falls within your scope of practice and qualifies for CE credit.
This course provides continuing education (CE) hours for massage therapists and a Certificate of Completion. This certificate does not replace a massage license.
Each state has its own CE requirements and definitions of “scope of practice” for massage therapists. Verify with your state board to ensure the course qualifies for your renewal needs.

This class is a live, in-person class. Course materials that support this class will be provided in a digital format. All class materials will be accessible online through our convenient student portal. You’ll receive login instructions via email about a week to ten days before your class start date. Please ensure the email address that you enroll in class with is correct and unique to you.

Cancellation and Transfer Policy
Cruises booked through our travel package are refundable up until final payment. After that, cruise cancellations are subject to the cruise line’s terms. Classes are part of an inclusive travel package; no refunds or credits are offered for classes. The cruise class schedule and cruise itinerary is subject to change.
All cancellation/transfer requests must be submitted by Email.
Refer to the full cancellation policy for more details.
Staying Overnight Pre or Post Cruise?
Staying Overnight for Your Class?
Convenience and Comfort: If you’re traveling to a class and staying overnight, staying at the same location where it’s held can be very convenient. We prioritize booking classes at business travel hotels that offer a comfortable and affordable experience. These hotels are often grouped close to other similar properties, so if you don’t find a room at the hotel where the class is being held, there should be other good options nearby.
Room Booking: For weekend classes (excluding special events such as Success School & Education Vacations), we typically don’t arrange room blocks. Room block rates (if available) expire a few weeks before the event. Consider booking directly with the hotel for more flexibility and service compared to third-party sites.
Finding the Best Rate: Check directly with the hotel for any discounts. Explore popular travel websites like hotels.com, trivago.com, expedia.com, etc. for deals. Check rates at other nearby hotels.
Confirmation Reminder: Enrolled students will receive an email reminder 7-10 days before the class with the confirmed location details.
We hope this information helps you plan your comfortable and convenient stay for your class!
