COMMON QUESTIONS
Everything you need to know.
What's the difference between regulated and accredited training?
Regulated qualifications are governed by Ofqual — the same body that regulates GCSEs, A-Levels, and national qualifications. They follow structured frameworks, portfolio-based assessment, and external quality assurance. Accredited training (such as ABT-accredited short courses) provides insurable certification for specific treatments but is not Ofqual regulated. For long-term professional credibility within advanced aesthetic practice, regulated qualifications offer the strongest foundation.
