Questions
Frequently asked before enrolling
If you still have questions after reading this section, reach out to the SHAW SKIN SCIENCE team and we’ll be happy to talk through your goals.
What level of experience do I need to join?
You should already be a licensed professional actively working with skin—this includes dermatology and aesthetic nurses, cosmetic doctors, medical aestheticians, and clinic owners. The content assumes familiarity with core anatomy and treatment modalities, but we provide primers where needed.
How much time should I allow each week?
Most practitioners commit 2–3 hours per week: around 60–90 minutes for on-demand teaching, 60 minutes for the live clinic lab (or replay), plus optional time for reading and case work. All live sessions are recorded if you cannot attend in real time.
Is there an exam or formal assessment?
There is an optional assessment pathway if you wish to receive a graded certificate. This includes a short multiple-choice component and one submitted case study demonstrating your application of the SHAW SKIN SCIENCE framework.
Can my clinic team enroll together?
Yes. Many clinics enrol 2–5 team members so they can align on one unified skin philosophy. Group rates and private Q&A sessions are available for teams—mention this in your application and our team will share options.
Do you cover specific product brands?
We remain brand-agnostic. While we reference formulations and ingredient archetypes, the focus is always on underlying skin science so you can make informed decisions across any portfolio you choose to carry.
Ready to practice with skin-first confidence?
Join a global community of clinicians and aestheticians raising the standard of skin care. Submit your application—it takes less than three minutes.
Next live intake begins April 2026. Spaces are offered on a rolling basis until the cohort is full.
