BT3A10 VTCT Level 3 Award Facial Electrotherapy

VTCT  Level 3 Award is the first step on the Ofqual regulated pathway for a beginner to aesthetics that replaces the old CPD Level 5 Diploma in Aesthetics. 

With the legislation changes nearing, it’s really important for all students that have already done the CPD Level 5 Diploma in Aesthetics to do the Ofqual Level 3 and 4 qualifications. 

The Ofqual pathway to aesthetics is non negotiable, the councils are now asking for regulated qualifications for  electrotherapy facials, chemical peels and microneedling, hence we have introduced the Level 3 and 4 now, so our students can carry on doing these treatments.

We have tried and tested the Qualifi level 4 and 5, however, we are not going to speculate and make our students do level 5 and 7 until the legislation guidelines are clear and made public. 

 We have partnered with VTCT/ ITEC, as they have straightforward exam processes and have 3 decades of experience in the industry compared to the new awarding bodies that really don’t know what they are doing.
