who is the course intended for

Who is the Peptide Therapies Training Course Intended for?

Empire’s peptide therapy training course is open to licensed healthcare professionals — including physicians, dentists, nurse practitioners, and nurses. Through live, in-person demonstrations, providers learn how peptides are applied across anti-aging, skin care, weight loss, and regenerative medicine, and how to integrate peptide therapy protocols into clinical practice.

Flexible Training Options

Choose Your Peptide Therapy Master Course: Weight Loss, Muscle Building, Rejuvenation & Hair Restoration Learning Format

Whether you prefer attending in person to learn alongside our board-certified faculty or the convenience of remote learning, we have a format that fits your schedule and learning style.

Most Popular

In-Person Training

Experience live demonstrations and direct instruction from board-certified physician faculty. Engage in real-time Q&A while learning the protocols, formulations, and patient considerations in a clinical setting.

Most in-person courses are hybrid: you complete the online didactic portion first, then attend in person for the live demonstration and a one-on-one Q&A with your physician instructor.

What’s included:

  • Live in-person demonstrations and Q&A
  • Direct faculty supervision & feedback
  • 35+ locations across the United States
  • Small group sizes with individual attention
  • Network with fellow practitioners & faculty
Find In-Person Dates →

Remote Option

Livestream Training

Our livestream option delivers the same comprehensive education as our in-person program — taught by a live instructor in real time so you can engage and ask questions from the comfort of your home or office. This virtual session runs approximately 7 hours, followed by an additional 1-hour live Q&A with the instructor.

What’s included:

  • Full didactic curriculum and course materials
  • Live interaction with an experienced board-certified instructor
  • Detailed technical videos and protocol walkthroughs

The only difference: in-person attendance lets you engage with the instructor directly during the live demonstration. Both formats deliver the full curriculum.
