Laser & IPL Safety- 'Core of Knowledge’ User – Level 4
Details
Introducing the Online Laser Training distance-learning course as a ‘Core of Knowledge’ (CoK) training program to provide you with a fundamental understanding of laser and light technology, how light interacts with skin to produce specific biological effects
and how to use laser and intense pulsed light (IPL) safely.
This course also covers relevant standards and regulations governing their use in a professional setting in different jurisdictions.
Your independent, international accreditation is provided by UK based OCN Credit4Learning; a United Kingdom Accreditation Services (UKAS) recognised accrediting body for quality training providers.
It is a legal obligation in some UK jurisdictions, some states of Australia, and most states in the U.S. that a ‘Core of Knowledge’ course from a recognised or approved trainer is provided as a requirement of registration and/or licencing.
In most countries, laser/IPL operators must demonstrate competence in the form of structured, recognised training in order to obtain liability insurance.
The courses consist of four units of learning; each contain course notes, a video presentation and a multiple choice assessment. A transcript of each presentation is also available for hearing impaired learners or for off-line study.
The learning outcome is an independently accredited, nationally recognised, Level 4 Award to the named student. This online course is worth 3 CPD learning credits (UK), or 3 CEU credits and 18 International CPD points (which is equivalent to a notional 30 hours of learning). Typically, the course takes 2 days to complete.
