Course Overview

Hurry up! Limited space available

VTCT is officially recognised by Ofqual – a widely recognised regulation board in the UK. It will train you to become a fully qualified assessor in hair and beauty. Although we specialise in training for hair and beauty courses, our VTCT Level 3 course is designed to help those on the course become qualified to assess NVQ courses.

You will leave RJL Education knowing how to prepare, plan, analyse and evaluate how NVQ courses are assessed. Fortunately, we have students on our NVQ courses throughout the year, enabling you plenty of opportunities to observe and assess students as part of gaining your qualification.
