New National Standardized Curriculum
Announced at the RAA Conference in Denver

The ACARET Board of Directors announced the new national standardized curriculum for reflexology certification training. Applications for voluntary accreditation of reflexology curriculum will begin Winter 2010. This momentous accomplishment by ACARET and the reflexology community moves the profession toward a higher standard of education for reflexology in America.

Industry surveys reveal a collective enthusiasm and unity of mind for our profession to raise the minimum educational standards. As we move into the future with reflexology being recognized as a CAM practice by the White House Commission on CAM, we raise the bar for excellence in education.
