Key Information

Following the recommendations of the Keogh Report and HEE to improve and standardise training in the field of non-surgical cosmetic interventions, a ruling has been made that micropigmentation technicians should successfully complete a Level 4 training.

As a result, insurers and local authorities are tightening up qualification requirements and it’s never been a more important time for technicians to upgrade their certification and professional skills to a Nationally Recognised Level 4 Standard.

The VTCT (ITEC) Level 4 Award in Micropigmentation (QAN 600/3944/9) is acknowledged as a hallmark of quality and assurance that successful candidates have the necessary skills and expertise to perform semi permanent makeup procedures safely and to a high standard.

The Award is registered on the Regulated Qualifications Framework and as such is:

• Nationally recognised, giving organisations and authorities confidence in your standards of achievement
• Will meet future recommendations for accredited qualifications
• A bridging qualification of 12 credit points (RQF defined standards) enabling opportunities for educational progression
