ASC Central · Our Flagship Program

The ASC Leadership Mastery Program

One program. All six leadership domains. Everything a new or growing ASC leader needs to run the center with confidence — built as structured preparation for the concepts tested on the CASC certification exam.

Enroll in the Program — $1,999.99
Introductory price · one payment · one full year of access, member benefits included

Included at no additional charge with ASC Premium Access and AHS Client Access. If you hold either, there is nothing to buy here — sign in and you will find the program under Training. Bought on its own, $1,999.99 is an introductory price and rises to $2,499.99 when the additional features arrive. Enrolment covers one year, so the material you study is always the current edition.

Why it's the better value: a single role-specific bootcamp is $1,899.99 and covers one role. The Mastery Program is $1,999.99 — just $100 more — and covers all six leadership domains, plus the exact same year of Patron benefits. If you want the complete picture instead of one slice of it, this is the program built for that.
Written and taught by John Goehle, MBA, CASC — author of the Survey Guide for ASCs and host of the ASC Podcast. Built by someone who has run surgery centers, for the people running them now.

About CASC exam preparation: This program is an independent educational offering built to help ASC leaders study the subject areas covered on the CASC exam. It is a study aid, not a guarantee of passing, and it is not produced, endorsed, or administered by the organization that owns or administers the CASC credential. Completing this program is not a substitute for reviewing the official exam content outline, and candidates should confirm current eligibility and exam requirements directly with the certifying body.
