FAQ
Questions we are asked most.
If yours is not here, ask us.
Training and entry
Who can train with the Academy?
It depends on the course. Our beginner programmes (Fast Track into Aesthetics, the Ultimate Aesthetics Career Package, the Ultimate Skin Specialist Course and Anatomy and Physiology Level 4) have no entry requirements.
Foundation injectable courses ask for a Level 3 beauty qualification, six months in SPMU with anatomy and physiology, or a microblading or microneedling qualification. Advanced courses ask for a set period of experience at the level below. Each course page states its requirements.
Do I need previous experience?
Not for the beginner programmes. If you have no beauty or medical background, start with Fast Track into Aesthetics, the Ultimate Aesthetics Career Package, or Anatomy and Physiology Level 4 followed by a foundation course.
If you are unsure which route fits, use the Start Here page or send us a short note about your background and we will tell you honestly what we would recommend.
How many students are in a class?
Foundation Dermal Fillers, Foundation Botulinum Toxin and Fast Track are capped at three students. Advanced Dermal Fillers, Skin Boosters and Microneedling are capped at four. We keep groups small so that every student gets meaningful hands-on time with the educator.
What happens after training?
You receive your certificate for each module completed, along with a stockist list and starter kit where the course includes one. You can contact the team with questions as you start treating clients, and we can point you towards the suppliers and insurers we work with.
Because we run clinics, we can also talk plainly about pricing, treatment menus and what to expect in your first months.
Are the courses accredited?
The Academy is a verified provider with The CPD Group, provider number 779331. Courses shown as CPD accredited carry a CPD accredited certificate; every course page states which certificate you receive.
Insurers set their own requirements for the treatments they cover, so we recommend checking with your chosen insurer before booking a treatment course. We are happy to help with that conversation.
On the day
Are models provided?
Yes. Live models are provided for every practical session, so you do not need to bring your own. Models are screened and consulted before treatment, and you treat them under supervision.
What should I bring?
Yourself, any pre-course work you were sent, a notepad and something to write with. Products, consumables and equipment for the day are supplied. Wear something comfortable that you can work in; scrubs are welcome but not required.
Where is training held?
The Academy trains from Chichester Beauty Aesthetics, 13 Market Road, Chichester, PO19 1JW, and Petersfield Beauty Aesthetics, 19 The Square, Petersfield, GU32 3HR. All of our current courses can be delivered at either location.
Chichester is our main Academy training centre. Course dates show which location each run takes place at, and you can tell us your preferred location when you enquire. Your joining instructions confirm the address, times and what to bring.
Booking and payment
How do I book?
Enquire through the contact page or email the Academy. Tell us which course you are interested in and a little about your background, and we will confirm suitability, upcoming dates and how to secure your place.
Are payment options available?
A booking fee secures your place on most courses. On Foundation Dermal Fillers and Foundation Botulinum Toxin this is a £500 non-refundable booking fee. Finance options are available; ask when you enquire and we will explain what is offered.
