The Handspring Wellness and Spa Academy (HAWSA) OPC, formerly known as the HIMAS | Asian Wellness and Spa Academy, proudly based in General Santos City, has achieved a significant milestone. Our TEAM Davao examinees celebrated a remarkable 100% passing rate in the December 2024 Department of Health (DOH) Massage Licensure Examinations, recently held at Sunny Point Hotel in Maa Road, Davao City.
Of sixty-four examinees across Mindanao, only twenty-six passed, reflecting a passing rate of approximately 40%. On a national level, among three hundred ninety-three registered exam takers, just one hundred thirty-four succeeded, resulting in a passing rate of only 34%.
On behalf of Ventura College of Tagum and other DOH-accredited massage training institutions, Benjamin “Benjie” Eugenio Jr., LMT, MPA, HAWSA Founding President, extends heartfelt gratitude to the DOH Committee of Examiners for Massage Therapy (CEMT), led by Atty. Rodel C. Flores, for their diligent efforts in ensuring the successful conduct of these examinations.
God is good all the time! (Psalm 34:8)
