COVID-19 Prevention - Protocols and Updates

UPDATED | May 2023

NHI remains committed to our mission of Helping People Have Work they Love.

There is nothing we value more than the health, safety and well-being of our students, alumni, staff and community.

 

FOR CURRENT STUDENTS

NHI offers a hybrid learning environment designed for busy adults. Our convenient, interactive online classes are combined with campus-based, in-person training in bodywork and supervised clinics. Our programs deliver the hands-on training and skills needed for you to succeed as a professional massage therapist.

Please continue to check your emails and be in communication with local campus staff for updates and additional support.

 

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ON CAMPUS

The health and safety of our guests, students, and staff is our top priority. As such, NHI will continue to practice Covid-19 Prevention Measures with the following requirements:

  • Strongly recommended but not required masking for all guests, students, and staff while on campus
  • Use of hand sanitization stations in hallways and classrooms
  • Regular cleaning and disinfection of campus shared areas

FOR PROSPECTIVE STUDENTS

We are currently hosting both in person and online information sessions, webinars, and meetings with Admissions and Financial Aid.
