The American Med Spa Association (AmSpa) has launched its Virtual Boot Camp. This new online product will provide medical spa professionals with an educational experience based on the organization's hugely successful live Medical Spa & Aesthetic Boot Camps.

"AmSpa is so excited to announce that we'e brought the education found in our incredible live Medical Spa & Aesthetic Boot Camp events online and on-demand. During this time in quarantine, it is important to sharpen your business acumen and increase your business's ability to thrive once the economy is back up and running. That is why the AmSpa Virtual Boot Camp was created," says Cathy Christensen, COO, AmSpa. "Although those who have been to a live Boot Camp know that what makes those great is the interaction with speakers and vendors, the networking, demo, roundtable and Q&A opportunities, the virtual boot camp brings the education and speakers—the stars of the live Boot Camps—to the comfort of your home."

The Virtual Boot Camp includes 14 sessions totaling 12 hours of education, many of which are adapted from presentations that have been given at AmSpa's live, in-person Medical Spa & Aesthetic Boot Camps. These include:
