The Australasian College of Aesthetic Medicine (ACAM) launches its Nurse Associate Pathway
The Australasian College of Aesthetic Medicine (ACAM) offers three fellowship pathways open to medical practitioners who wish to upgrade their education and consolidate their skills. In addition, ACAM has reduced its training for aesthetic nurses and has developed a robust Aesthetic Nurse Associate program. Dr Caswell, President of ACAM, believes one of the functions of a college is to provide access for its members to be the best education available. Adult postgraduate learning is often a task that fits around work and home commitments, and she is keen that all candidates access quality education that provides meaningful knowledge.

In an exciting partnership, Dr Caswell has praised Dr Andrew Clark, ACAM’s Censor in Chief, for his diligent review and recommendation of the University of South Wales (USW) online teaching. The University of South Wales was established in 2013 following the merger of the University of Glamorgan and the University of Wales, Newport. USW offers the Postgraduate Certificate of Cosmetic and Aesthetic Medicine, which completes the academic training needs for the ACAM Nurse Associate Pathway.

This pathway aims to provide nurses with an internationally recognised and independent university qualification, contributing to their Nurse Associate status with ACAM. The course offers interested nurses a flexible and achievable study format and a worldwide recognised qualification. ACAM nursing members who enrol in the USW postgraduate certificate in Cosmetic and Aesthetic Medicine enjoy discounted fees negotiated by ACAM.

To review this course: https://www.southwales.ac.uk/courses/postgraduate-certificate- cosmetic-and-aesthetic-medicine-online-delivery/
Dr Caswell stated that ACAM’s partnerships with internationally recognised tertiary institutions had been warmly welcomed, members have shown a genuine interest in ACAM’s educational model. Dr Caswell explained that ACAM has a solid commitment to increasing the practical, ethical and academic content within the scope of aesthetic medicine practice whilst providing access to externally validated standards and knowledge. According to her understanding, Dr Caswell stated that the Fellowship and Nurse Associate programs offered by ACAM are unique regarding their tertiary educational choices, focus on ethics in medicine, and robust, holistic training.

Dr Clark advises that interest in ACAM’s modern approach to education has been strong and undoubtedly helped by its online and interactive delivery of short courses and workshops developed during the COVID-19 pandemic. There is no limit imposed on the number of candidate enrolments at this stage, as the college wishes to provide educational opportunities to all who want to complete them.
