Course Locations: Belfast and Derry/Londonderry
Practical sessions for our sports massage diploma courses are delivered at venues in Belfast and Derry/Londonderry, covering the two largest population centres in Northern Ireland and making the qualification accessible to learners across the province without excessive travel.
Our Belfast courses run on multiple formats to suit different schedules. Evening courses, weekend courses, and mid-week Wednesday courses are all available, meaning you can qualify around an existing job or family commitments rather than having to choose between your income and your career development.
Our Derry/Londonderry weekend course serves learners from the north-west, including those travelling from Strabane, Limavady, Coleraine, and border areas of Donegal. This course follows the same accredited curriculum and practical assessment standards as our Belfast programmes.
Theory learning is started online through our learning portal and app before your practical days begin, so you arrive at venue sessions prepared and able to make the most of your hands-on tutor time.
