| CLASS membership application | Membership in CLASS offers these benefits: Cross training between specialties: CLASS is a membership-driven, non-profit organization dedicated to safe and effective laser surgery practice. Recognized leaders in aesthetic laser surgery are members, regardless of their specialty. Cross specialty membership allows cross-sharing of important ideas and techniques among various medical specialties. CLASS is a forum for you to teach and learn from other medical specialties. Annual meeting: Member feedback from our annual meetings is always overwhelmingly positive. The CLASS educational symposium is held each year in Toronto. Please see this page for details. Promotional activities: CLASS will promote, support and act as a resource for members. It will help differentiate members who are specialists from peripheral practitioners who are advertising and make clear to the public the benefits of choosing a CLASS member. Web site: The CLASS web site permits site visitors to search CLASS members according to city and offers each member their own detailed personal web page with photo free with their membership fee. Hands on training: Organized, hands-on training courses for members. Members will be able to network easily with other members to gather information about new techniques and procedures. Our network of preceptors available for training purposes is unequalled. Quality: When your competitor down the street has a preventable complication, it hurts your business: it raises awareness of the negative outcomes that are possible with any form of cosmetic surgery. Whenever anyone has a complication, overall public demand drops. It is best for you and for everyone if everyone performs good, safe, effective procedures. When everyone is operating at maximum quality, cosmetic surgery will become more commonplace and suitable for the majority. Membership certificate; Each new member will receive a membership certificate and may purchase a wall plaque upon admission to the society. Marketing: Demographics indicate that the first of the baby boomers recently turned 50. The sheer size of the cosmetic surgery market is poised to take off in absolute numbers, until 2011 when the largest group of boomers will turn 50. These patients are affluent and have appearance on their mind. There will be a dramatic surge in demand for all forms of aesthetic procedures. Because the public has certain expectations of laser surgeons, membership in CLASS will help promote your practice.
