Have just started training with Essentials for Health, who offer ITEC level 3 Diploma in Holistic Massage, or BTEC Level 4 - the syllabus we will follow is geared towards the BTEC standard, but you choose which exam you want to take (BTEC exam requires an extra one off payment later on), and therefore which qualification you will get.

They've asked us to start considering now which to take, but wondered what everyone else thought - does it make any difference really?

thanks!

It will make no difference at all. Doesn't matter what your qualifications are, if you are a rubbish therapist you won't get any work. These qualifications are just a starting point. The learning never stops. No course or exam can teach you intuition or flair for the subject. The real test comes when you're out there, doing it!!:)

Just pick the one you most fancy.

Good luck.

No difference. Choose any, in any way they both give just basics.

It seams you are not in profession at all and have a huge number of contradictions in your post
