This will run from 10am – 4pm. There will be a quick re-cap on the theory you have studied at home to confirm knowledge and answer any questions however the majority of the training days will be spent acquiring and demonstrating your practical skills.

We can then arrange a further multiple choice written assessment day, consisting of 2 separate papers in facial skincare and electrotherapy treatments and facial anatomy and physiology. A 70% pass rate much be achieved.

Once you have completed your assessment days and deemed to be competent you will receive an ABT accredited certificate from the Beacon Academy to allow you to obtain Public Liability Insurance so you can start offering treatments to paying clients from home and/or in employment.  You will then receive your VTCT qualification certificate (this can take up to 12 weeks to be released from the awarding body VTCT).
