Qualification and Certification
What you receive depends on your programme. Specialist courses, PMU Essentials and Full Face PMU use the applicable ABT or CPD training route for your chosen course and provider. The VTCT Level 4 Pathway and Upgrade Programme follow the VTCT Level 4 qualification route. These are different credentials — we’ll confirm exactly what you’ll receive before you book. Insurance acceptance and council licensing depend on the individual insurer and local authority.
