MTAA FREE Student Membership

Free Student Membership is a great way to test drive the MTAA! 

Free Student Membership allows students enrolled in MTAA-approved massage therapy programs to join our association free of charge. Free Student Membership does not provide liability coverage or a member number. This membership is to allow students to become familiar with our association and to prepare for Active membership upon graduation.

This free membership opportunity provides students access to our member’s benefits such as MTAA Partners. Students can enjoy discounts on products and services to enhance their future practice as well as their personal lives. Please CLICK HERE to learn more.

Students who hold this form of membership for at least 60 days before their graduation date will also receive the Student to Active Discount! This is a one-time opportunity where Student Members who move to Active membership within 6 months of their graduation date receive a 50% discount on their first year of Active membership. This is a savings of over $200!!

Peter Martin Award of Excellence
Student members who move to Active also have the opportunity to apply for the annual Peter Martin Award of Excellence. This is a $750 award that students can use towards their student loans, for their practice, or for their MTAA membership. Please CLICK HERE to learn more.

To become a Free Student Member you must:
  • Be currently enrolled in a 2,200 hour education program licensed within Alberta and recognized by the MTAA.
  • Submit confirmation of enrollment from your educational institution.
