Program Overview
The Fast-Track to Board Credential Level III (D.T.S.) is an advanced-standing doctoral pathway designed for highly experienced, certified trichologists and senior practitioners who are prepared to advance into leadership, scholarship, and standards-setting roles within the NeoTrichology™ discipline.
This pathway recognizes prior education, clinical experience, and demonstrated competency while preserving full doctoral-level rigor. Candidates complete upper-division general studies, select master-level clinical bridge coursework, and all doctoral-level NeoTrichology requirements, ensuring mastery before elevation to professional doctoral standing.
Fast-Track D.T.S. candidates engage in advanced theoretical integration, applied research, supervised residency experience, and original professional contribution. All candidates are evaluated under the same standards as traditional doctoral pathway participants.
