Placement Assistance
The school offers continuing placement assistance to graduates and, while it maintains a high placement rate, employment is not guaranteed.
Students can receive assistance in identifying career directions from the Placement Director and other members of the administrative team, all of whom are practicing, licensed massage therapists.
As the school's graduates are known for their excellence, many outfits (both local and out-of-state) looking to hire massage therapists check with SSMT.
A current job listing is kept up-to-date by the school, and can be accessed at any time by licensed SSMT graduates.
