 Recently, I had my very first experience with a ride-sharing app. All I had to do was download the app to my phone and register for services. Within minutes, the driver, who was personable and timely, arrived at my location and took me to my destination. Now, when I say ride-sharing app, did you automatically assume Uber? Well, that's why differentiation is important between businesses.

Leaders know the dangers of micromanaging, and most try to avoid it. But even if they’re not micromanaged, employees may still feel they don’t have a voice at the office, suggested a survey from Unify. Employees have managers for a reason, but handing over the reins and giving employees more control can make for happier, more engaged employees. Here are a few ways to do that.

Marketing is an added cost in a cosmetic surgery practice that most other types of medical practices don't have. "Aside from equipment, supplies and employee costs, marketing can be a significant additional cost and if you use a marketing agency, you have their fees on top of the actual marketing costs," Dr. Jonathan Kaplan, owner, Pacific Heights Plastic Surgery, San Francisco, tells Cosmetic Surgery Times. " ... doctors can find ways to tackle marketing in an organic way to keep costs low and even do it in-house, to avoid the agency fees. Keeping costs low is attractive to doctors with ballooning expenses."

 If there has been one significant change in the area of marketing and engagement, it is the almost complete ubiquity of "programs." Some of them have names everyone knows like Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and YouTube. Others have names like Salesforce, Marketo, Dynamics or iMIS. Yet despite the great fanfare from these systems, why do their promises rarely materialize? The biggest obstacle to solving the problem is not the lack of software, but the lack of buy-in from staff.

Scabies is a common, highly contagious skin parasitosis caused by Sarcoptes scabiei var. hominis. Early identification and prompt treatment of infested subjects is essential, as missed diagnosis may result in outbreaks, considerable morbidity, and significantly increased economic burden.
In recent years, some advanced and noninvasive techniques such as videodermatoscopy, dermatoscopy, reflectance confocal microscopy, and optical coherence tomography have demonstrated improved efficacy in the diagnosis of scabies.

Faculty Focus
A central goal of education is teaching critical-thinking skills. Inquiry-based teaching is an excellent path to this goal. Based partly on the philosophy that "humans are born inquirers," the method focuses on student discovery over pushing information from the instructor. Along the way, the students explore multiple sources and contexts, ask questions and pursue hypotheses and work to apply their theories to new and diverse situations. In doing this, they actively discover the interrelatedness among concepts, topics and theories.

 Classrooms have come a long way since the days of pencils, paper and textbooks. Now many school districts are trading those tools in for new ones — the latest tablets and laptops, to be exact. So what kind of impact is all this technology having on students, for better or for worse? Proponents of these one-to-one device initiatives, as they're known, say the technology aids learning and helps tailor lessons to each child. But the devices also bring some clear downsides.

Did you know ... it is NCEA position that:
Due to the advances in technique, product and equipment, the NCEA recognizes the importance of protecting consumers and estheticians. Skin Care Curriculum requirements should be adopted from the NCEA's 600 and 1200 Esthetician Job Task Analysis.
Furthermore, it is NCEA's position to raise the level of the Esthetician's Scope of Practice by increasing the licensing requirements to meet NCEA's 1200 Hours Esthetician Job Task Analysis. The current cosmetology license that allows licensees to practice skin care includes a maximum of 250 hours of actual skin care training and in some states, as low as 40 hours.
Currently there are more than 25 states that are still allowing cosmetologists to perform all skin care services regardless of training/curriculum that lead to licensure.
