Health concerns which preclude the successful practice of massage or place the client or student at risk. Failure to meet financial obligations to the school. Students with grievances are asked to first go directly to the person involved, state the problem and their feelings about it, and attempt to work the issue through with the other person, be it faculty, staff, or fellow student. The director has an open-door policy and is available to students to aid in this process. A roundtable discussion with students and administrators is held at least once a semester.
Students have the opportunity to make suggestions, ask questions, and discuss concerns.
Issues which cannot be resolved directly or through the roundtable discussion may be submitted in writing on a form provided by the school and will be reviewed by the Grievance Committee. The Grievance Committee is composed of the school director, two faculty members, and an elected student, and may meet periodically to entertain issues brought before them by students, staff, and others. The school posts job opportunities as they come in and maintains a database of employers who have previously hired our graduates and of graduates seeking placement. That transferability is up to the receiving institution. Such arrangements are common and made between the student and the listed resource.
