I believe we should have staggering years any way. Perhaps even go to 3 years per renewal

It costs so much to travel to do classes. Seems rarley the good classes such as cupping or lyphatic massage are within close travel. In this case, online or virtual classes would be convenient.

Although I have my credits now, many massage therapist wait till the last quarter to obtain the cont. edu. They need. Often classes are cheaper, which is important, because they are expensive. Please give everyone in the continuing education community time to regroup, advertise, find locations for classes. Also most MT have not been working, load of income. They will need the time to earn income to pay for classes. Thank you!

In order for our community to continue to thrive for both the teachers and the students, please extend another 6 months.

It has always been important to my practice to experience hands on classes! Seems sensible to extend license renewal for at less 6 months.

Please allow an additional 6 months for LMTs to renew their licenses. Without working for the last 3-4 weeks and longer there is no way a MT can afford to renew at the price of the renewal fee plus get all of our required CEs..

The other thing to consider is the rather hefty renewal fee ($125 vs $90 for a physical therapist license renewal). It's already difficult for some of us to manage this fee. Now that we are unable to work, it'll be that much harder. An additional 6 months back on the job will allow us more time to meet this financial requirement.

It is important that the deadline be extended for 6 months. I am a sole proprietor And have currently been unable to work while dealing with the pandemic. The extension would allow for time to gather the funds to take the classes once I am able to reopen my practice. I'm sure an extension would help many other LMTs too. Thank you!

I hope we don't need another six months! It may be a good option in case we do!

Hands on education is needed for our license renewal. Very hard to do this on line

Due to the unusual circumstances, most are scrambling financially. I hope you will consider an extension for our license renewal. Thank you.
