Course structure

This qualification comprises both theory and practical elements. The theory part of the qualification is completed as home-study making this an ideal route for those who wish to study flexibly around other commitments. This includes written assignments and knowledge testing quizzes as required by the awarding body VTCT.

This is focused around health and safety, client care and communication, anatomy and physiology, hair removal and skin rejuvenation.

This qualification will require research; it includes the skills involved in providing a thorough consultation with clients to formulate a specific course of treatment, tailored to suit individual client needs. You will use laser and light treatments for skin rejuvenation and hair removal and will learn how to manage the health, safety and security of the clinic.

There are no VTCT external papers, therefore the written assignments are quite in depth and will require time and commitment.

At the time of enrolment on your qualification, you will have access to your study materials (including: manual, power point presentations, worksheets and our Student Handbook). Once you have completed all theory coursework and it has been submitted and marked by an assessor, you will arrange to attend 3 practical assessment days to achieve your VTCT qualification. You will have your skills assessed in a real working environment within our academy and will complete case studies at this time. You will be fully competent in working on all areas of the body for hair removal and treating clients for photo rejuvenation, red veins, pigmentation and acne.

Classes 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 including the consultation process.

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).

We have a Support Team that is on hand to answer any of your questions via email and we will get back to you before the end of the working day.
