Understanding of the GCT PROGRAM and the Accreditation in other part of the world:

GCT program is the program for students to become professional and teacher in Thai massage. TMC is an accredited school and GCT Program is approved curriculum by the Thai Ministry of Education.

The Thai government can only accredited schools in Thailand. Other countries around the world will have their own law and regulation according to school accreditation and licensing to a person to become a massage therapist and or to teach massage in particular country. Therefore, the students interest to learn Thai massage from TMC or any massage schools other than in their countries (even cities) must inquire about the acceptance and licensing to practice massage or to teach with their own local government agency.

This is the general understanding apply to all type of profession. Please beware and seek correct information before embark on the massage professional learning.

In addition to the accreditation of Continuing Education Provider such as NCBTMB, AAMT etc that TMC accreditation will not apply to the GCT graduates once they apply to be affiliated with TMC. The accredited organizations require the accreditation apply to only the school location or under the training from the school. The graduates may apply to become the providers themselves.

Should the students or applicants have any more questions regard to this accreditation, please contact the management.
