Our Partners

CPD is concerned with professionalism and self-development. Key aspects of CPD training include:

• Target Audience
• Clear Learning Objectives
• Program Content & Structure
• Delivery Methods
• Faculty Expertise
• Evaluation & Quality Assurance

CPD activity can be recorded and used as evidence of professional development in a portfolio or at an annual review. Importantly, CPD is a process through which already qualified professionals can keep themselves updated, rather than providing a qualification (see academic accreditation further down).

It is important that aesthetic training courses are CPD accredited to ensure that all training takes a standardised format, including clearly stated learning objectives and a structured teaching plan. CPD accreditation alone does not inform on the content of training (eg: how much hands-on training), and as such it is important to understand what any teaching will involve through discussion with the training provider.

Working with the CPD Certification Service, we ensure that our training courses, such as the Foundation Course & Advanced Course, follow the standardised approach required by the CPD process in planning and execution.

In furtherance of their aim to raise and improve standards, VTCT identified from consultation events that, within the non-surgical clinical aesthetic industry, the current situation indicates there are a limited number of qualifications available and that VTCT would be ideally placed to support the industry with a regulated qualification, to support patient care and promote public confidence in the sector, hence the development of the VTCT (ITEC) Level 7 Diploma in Clinical Aesthetic Injectable Treatments.

Allergan is widely regarded as leading medical aesthetic research on the global stage, and counts among its commissioned research some key studies including the use of Juvederm Volux for facial revolumisation (confirmation stage) and the use of BOTOX® for the masseter muscle (Phase 3 trial), to name just a few. A comprehensive list of Allergan research can be found here.

At Interface Aesthetics, we have forged a partnership with Allergan from our inception, recognising the importance of training our delegates with industry-leading products backed up by a growing evidence base. Allergan has a well-established reputation for products of the highest standards, with wide recognition of ranges such as Juvederm® and of BOTOX® Cosmetic among both patients and practitioners.

Whether it is on our regulated Level 7 Diploma training, or on any of our stand-alone courses (Foundation, Advanced, Masterclass or 1:1 Training), Interface Aesthetics delegates can be confident that they will be using products with a wealth of research and years of use behind them, giving the ultimate peace of mind. Working with only highly-regarded products also brings significant competitive advantage in a brand sensitive industry.
