Your previous career is none of our business. 😂
- Barista? Cool.
- Nurse? Cool.
- Student? Cool.
- Completely different career? Also cool.

There’s no secret handshake. (But maybe there should be? 🤔)
No “RMT type.” There’s no required backstory....

There’s just you… deciding what’s next.
And if what’s next happens to be RMT?

We know a place. 😉

🎓 January & September 2027 applications are OPEN.

Skeletal crew here until Aug 31 (you can even see tumbleweeds drift by!)
We sure do miss all the buzz and energy of our students in the halls!

🤔Wondering if you are a good fit for RMT training?
There is no right person or right background...
The right time, ⏰however, that's now!
Accepting January and September 2027 applications

What if your next patient was a future RMT?
🦴 Love anatomy? We want to hear from you! 👀

You know your origin from your insertion.
You can palpate your way around the body.
And you’ve probably said “SCM” more times than most people can handle. 😂

Now… how about teaching the next generation of RMTs?

OVCMT is looking for a Musculoskeletal Anatomy Instructor to teach our MS100, MS200 & MS300 courses starting September 2026 (or October, if needed).

You’ll get to:
✨ Share your clinical knowledge
👐 Teach palpation and practical application
🧠 Help students connect anatomy to real-world treatment
🎓 Prepare future RMTs for the profession
💡 Bring your own teaching style and expertise into the classroom

Who are we looking for?
✔️ RMT with 2+ years of experience, and a related degree
OR
✔️ Physiotherapist or chiropractor with massage therapy knowledge and an interest in teaching

Teaching experience is an asset, but we’re really looking for someone who can make anatomy make sense.

Ready to turn “Where does that muscle attach again?” into “OH! Now I get it!”?
Come teach anatomy. Shape future RMTs. 🦴💪

📣 We’re looking for a Musculoskeletal Anatomy Instructor!

✨ Physiotherapist with an understanding of massage therapy
✨ Chiropractor with an understanding of massage therapy
✨ Health professional who enjoys teaching, mentoring and making complicated concepts click

Previous post-secondary teaching experience is an asset, but just as important is the ability to connect with students and bring anatomy to life in the classroom.

🎉 YEAR 1: DONE! ☀️

And just like that… Year 1 is officially in the books!

A whole lot of learning, studying, palpating, practising, laughing, stressing (just a little 😉) and growing went into getting to this moment.

To our Year 1 crew - CONGRATULATIONS! 🙌

You’ve worked incredibly hard to get here, and now there’s only one assignment left:

☀️ GO. ENJOY. SUMMER. ☀️

Rest. Recharge. Have some fun. Spend time with your people. Do all the things that have been waiting while you’ve been buried in anatomy notes. 😂

We’ll see you back here for Year 2! 💪
