Professional development demands are always shifting.
Within the skincare, dermal therapy, and applied health science industries, increased consumer demand and complexity of products and services offered has driven the need for more training and education programs.
There is additionally a desire for a greater variety of learning opportunities, whether that is in terms of subject matter, complexity, price, or duration.
ACHW is excited to help meet this market need through the debut of a new course type: Professional Certificates.
Professional Certificates are unaccredited courses comprised of units of study from our Bachelor of Applied Health Science (Clinical Aesthetics). They are designed primarily for newcomers to the industry, providing an achievable and accessible educational starting point. Professional Certificates also benefit existing industry practitioners who are seeking stay abreast of industry trends, technological advancements, and evolving best practices.
ACHW is currently offering four Professional Certificates in applied health science:
As they are unaccredited, there are no entry requirements for these courses, which is why they are well suited to industry newcomers. They are delivered either entirely online or in a blend of online and in-clinic training, ensuring that study is available regardless of location, and the variety of subjects enables people with diverse interests to find a course appropriate for their career goals.
Knowing that every individual’s education journey is unique and often undertaken in stages, we wanted to make sure that these Professional Certificates enable this type of learning. The units in these courses can provide advanced standing for our larger qualifications if you choose to pursue one later, saving you both time and money.
ACHW's Professional Certificates are thus able to deliver both immediate practical benefits and sustainable career advancement pathways in the flourishing applied health science sector.
