When Capilano Mall, was heavily reconstructed in 2013, MaKami College remained in what remained of the previous building. Second year students were also relocated to the new Sports Massage Facility Centre off 50 Street & 106 Ave. The Edmonton campus houses first and second year massage therapy students as well as workshops for students and working RMTs.
