An educational program which is a foundational surgical course covering the fundamental concepts of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. It is oriented towards younger qualified plastic surgeons who are still in training or have practised for less than five years. The Fundamental Aesthetic Surgery Training (F.A.S.T) program is divided into three modules taught over a period of one year.
Please note that approval of a F.A.S.T. Program is not approval to provide attendees with Continuing Medical Education (CME) credit.
You must apply for accreditation to the appropriate organization.
This application can only be accepted for programs that meet the following criteria:
ISAPS Fees for the F.A.S.T. Program will be gradually discounted for every module, payable two months prior to each. ($10,000 - $8,000 - $6,000 totaling $24,000 for the complete F.A.S.T. series.) Programs supported by ISAPS Global Alliance Member Societies are eligible for a 10% discount.
Registration fees for participants are at the discretion of the local organizers. Industry can be invited to sponsor the program. Income generated from this program will be collected by the local organizing committee and distributed at their discretion.
The faculty reimbursement policy for ISAPS Professors is the responsibility of the local organizers. This requires that the organizers provide full travel expenses, in any class of service agreed upon between the EC and the local organizers, airport transfers, hotel accommodations and hospitality for the whole period of each module (and VPP if combined).
On completion of the full program, the ISAPS Education Council will grant special certificates to the participants. Separate certificates will also be granted for each module, but ISAPS benefits (see below) to the participants apply only if the full program is attended and completed.
CME accreditation or equal national accreditation by an official medical body or society is obligatory for the F.A.S.T. Program and is the responsibility of the local organizers.
