Not entirely. We've carefully curated the course material to take you through the theory portion of your course in a structured way remotely. The practical element of your training, as well as your practical exam, will of course take place in person at our Milton Keynes clinic.
There will be separate exams for the different elements of your training - one theory exam, taken from home, and a practical exam, done in person. We'll reach out to you once you've enrolled and ask you for some preferred dates for your exams. These typically need to be booked around 8-12 weeks in advance, as a member of Bianco Academy and an iTEC invigilator will need to be present.
Your theory exam will be largely, if not exclusively, made up of multiple choice questions. Other students, as well as a Bianco Academy representative and iTEC invigilator will be present via a video call. The exam is prescribed to be taken under exam conditions, meaning googling answers or referring to course isn't permitted.
You may be one of multiple students being assessed on the same day, however each student is assessed on their own with only the trainer(s), invigilator and model present. Your assessment criteria will be briefed to you ahead of the practical exam, but you will be assessed on patient care, presentation and treatment application, among other aspects.
Yes! You can enrol in multiple courses at one time. In fact, this may be more efficient from an exam date perspective, however, you must receive a pass mark in a pre-requisite exam in order to pass the following exam. E.g., you can't get become qualified in Level 4 Core of Knowledge unless you have passed your Level 3 Anatomy & Physiology exam.
VTCT and CPD have their own training and testing criteria relating to the courses they accredit. VTCT training and testing tends to be a longer and more thorough process. The down side to this is that it takes longer to become qualified, but the up side is that your training and testing may be more thorough, preparing you for practicing your new skill.
VTCT qualifications are also OFQUAL regulated, which CPD are not.
Due to this, some local councils, particularly in certain boroughs of London will only accept a VTCT qualification and you may not be allowed to practice with a CPD certification in those areas.
