OUR VALUES ARE OUR GUIDING PRINCIPLES

Ofqual Plasma Training Level 4

We are able to offer this training to practitioners who already have their own plasma device, or those who wish to train with our own industry-standard, Planoplas, made in Germany and regarded as the ‘game-changer’ in plasma therapy. As a Level 4 qualification, it sits alongside other Qualifi courses in Aesthetic Practice such as Health and Safety, Client Consultation, A and P for aesthetic practice, Microneedling and Peels. As the new licensing requirements for aesthetics are introduced, Ofqual regulated courses will set the standard for education and training.

The course is divided in to 3 Units:

  4. Understand how to prepare for aesthetic procedures using health and safety practices
  5. Understand how to use health and safety practices for aesthetic procedures
  6. Understand how to complete health and safety practices for aesthetic procedures

All three units are delivered by a combination of e-learning, video tutorials, webinars, written resources and in the case of the Plasma Skin Rejuvenation, hands-on training.

Assessments will be in the form of short answer questions, written assignments, oral questions, evidence-based work, and case studies. These are all externally set by Qualifi and marked by assessors at the academy. The total qualification time for the whole course is 270 hours, this is the maximum time allowed, however any previous experience or training, may qualify as recognised prior learning (RPL) which can count towards your qualification.

Each Unit can be taken individually, so Plasma Skin Rejuvenation can be taken as a stand-alone unit.

Raising the bar in aesthetics. The provision of vocational training to the status of Ofqual regulated courses is our overriding ambition and we hope that it will be yours’ too.
