A final assessment date is arranged after the home study period.

If you are already registered with VTCT this fee may be reduced by up to £34.00.

Further Information
The aromatherapy course includes ‘hands on’ training in aromatherapy massage. Course times are from 10.30 am to about 5.30 pm depending on the group size.
The aromatherapy qualification is recognised in many countries outside the UK and gives a good grounding for further qualifications in holistic therapies. The venue is at the Manchester School of Massage in South Manchester. The group size is kept at ten or below for individual attention. In certain circumstances we may be able to offer a monthly payment scheme. Part-time work experience for students is available at Manchester Therapy Centre.
