Celebrating Derma Institute’s New CNA Accreditation: A Milestone in Aesthetic Training for Canadian Nurses

At Derma Institute, we’re excited to announce a significant milestone: our Foundation and Advanced Botox & Dermal Filler training courses have officially received accreditation from the Canadian Nurses Association (CNA). This recognition underlines our commitment to delivering the highest standards in aesthetic education, specifically tailored for Canada’s nursing professionals. As a powerhouse nursing organization that has guided health policy and represented over 466,000 regulated nurses across Canada since 1908, the CNA’s endorsement means a great deal to us—and to the nurses who train with us.

Empowering Nurses to Thrive in Aesthetic Medicine

With our CNA-accredited Botox and dermal filler training, Derma Institute is better equipped than ever to support nurses looking to expand into aesthetic medicine. We welcome Registered Nurses (RNs), Nurse Practitioners (NPs), Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs), and Registered Practical Nurses (RPNs) from across Canada who want to advance their skills and enter the field of cosmetic injectables. Through our courses, nurses learn the latest, most effective techniques and gain the potential to grow their professional portfolio and even double their income—while making a meaningful difference in their patients’ lives.

Hands-On Training by Industry Experts

Our courses are designed with a focus on practical skills. From the very start, trainees work with live models under the guidance of our highly experienced team of aesthetic medicine physicians and expert trainers. With a hands-on approach, our program emphasizes safe and precise injection techniques, helping each participant feel confident and well-prepared to begin their journey in aesthetic medicine.

To further support our graduates, we offer ongoing access to training videos, course materials, and post-course support from our team. Whether you’re at our Hamilton, Toronto, Calgary, Winnipeg, Ottawa or Vancouver training centres, our instructors ensure your success every step of the way.

Earn Credit Hours and Professional Recognition

Alongside comprehensive training, our CNA accreditation brings tangible benefits for nurses looking to fulfil their Continuing Education requirements. Upon completing our program, nurses receive 16 credit hours recognized by the CNA, which can be sent to provincial regulatory colleges to confirm ongoing professional development. Graduates also receive a certificate with a CNA seal of completion, reflecting both the rigour and quality of our program and its national recognition.
