Key Components of Excellence
For over ten years, ACBAA Providers have served their community, building and providing the resources clients and healthcare professionals needed to help others. Key components of excellence ensure Certificants have access to reliable, credible, high-quality CSL therapy continuing education throughout their careers. In addition, ACBAA serves as the entity liable for approving continuing education in the postOperative and noninvasive body altering aesthetics space.
Enhance Your Expertise and Abilities
Growing providers and Board Certificant members must renew their certification every 2 years and are required to obtain credits from an ACBAA approved educational trainer within the same time frame. As more providers take classes that lack the experience and knowledge of CSL Therapy, and more specifically true POSTOP industry training, eager learners are seeking out quality courses that teach exactly what they want to know. This ensures that the top CSL therapists and bodyworkers will look for opportunities to enhance their expertise and abilities through your classes.
What is the Advancing Scholastic Training Program?
The Advancing Scholastic Training Program is a peer review system of CSL Therapy courses to be taught to the general public and the CSL Therapy professional audiences by pre-approved qualified educators. Peer review is the independent assessment of a research paper by experts in a respective field. The purpose of peer review is to evaluate the paper’s quality and suitability for publication.
As well as peer review acting as a form of quality control for academic courses, it is a very useful source of feedback for the trainer as well. The feedback can be used to improve a course before it is published, as well as protects the public’s interest before making under-informed investments. It serves as an alert to any errors in the body of work, or gaps in the literature that may have been overlooked.
Why else is peer review important?
Peer review is vitally important to uphold the high standards of scholarly communications, ensure the industry is growing with efficacy– wedding out misinformation, and maintain the quality of individual journals. It is also an important support for the researchers who author the papers.
Every healthcare and medical coursework depends on the hard efforts of reviewers who are the ones at the forefront of the peer review process. The reviewers are the ones who test and refine each course before publication. Even for very niche specialists, the editor can’t be an expert in the topic of every article submitted. So, the feedback and comments of carefully selected reviewers are an essential guide to lead the editor’s decision(s) on course research.
There are also practical reasons why peer review is beneficial to you, the author. Researchers consistently tell us that their final published article is better than the version they submitted before peer review. 91% of respondents to ACBAA’s Beta Course Submission program said that their last paper was improved through peer review. A Taylor & Francis study supports this, finding that most researchers, across all subject areas, rated the contribution of peer review towards improving their coursework as 8 or above out of 10.
Why the ACBAA Council?
Medical courses should be subjected to peer review before being taught to the public to ensure their accuracy, validity, and effectiveness. Members of the CSL Therapy Council have expert experience in every aspect of CSL Therapy, and embody the guiding principles needed to lead the educational space of this industry. Peer review allows other experts in the field to review the course material and offer feedback, suggestions, and corrections.
Should a course subject fall outside of the Council’s expert space, respective experts will be sourced and introduced to the Bridge Program’s Expert Review Procurement. This helps to ensure that the information being taught is current, evidence-based, and adheres to established standards and best practices in the medical field. By undergoing peer review, CSL Therapy courses can be refined and improved, and the quality of Body Altering Aesthetic medical education can be maintained.
