“We’re thrilled to launch these unique spa courses,” says ACHS Chief Strategy Officer Erika Yigzaw. “These dynamic courses are beautifully designed to give students an interactive and immersive education in the spa management industry with a focus on holistic protocols. Even more, we’ve chosen expert faculty with vast knowledge and experience in distance learning, holistic health, and the spa industry.”
Both new and current students can enroll in a single spa course or take all nine credits. For current ACHS students, these courses award nine credits towards the Diploma in Holistic Health Practice and the Associate of Applied Science in Complementary Alternative Medicine programs.
“These courses are designed to equip holistic health students with skills to break into and thrive in the spa industry,” says ACHS President Dorene Petersen. “But they are also ideal for current spa professionals who are looking for continuing education opportunities to expand their knowledge of holistic health, enrich their current careers, or provide additional services to their clientele.”
