RPEL Fasttrack Process - Level 7 Diploma in Clinical Aesthetics

The RPEL fasttrack route to qualification is solely for regulated practitioners who have already undertaken training in aesthetic practice through other formal and informal means and acquired patient-facing experience working in the clinical aesthetic field. 

Regulated practitioners who hold registration on part 1 (category 2) of the JCCP register OR meet MAP-IQ’s entry requirements will be exempt from undertaking the full Level 7 learning programme including the clinical skill observations and supervised treatments and progress directly to assessment.  

 

Additionally, practitioners who have undertaken comparable education, training, mentorship and or have gained sufficient experience in aesthetic practice are able to claim further exemption against the two internal assessment processes and proceed directly to the online written examination and practical assessment. 

 

The online written exam involves answering multiple choice questions (MCQs) aligned to qualification learning outcomes. The online practical assessment involves demonstrating competence to administer a botulinum toxin and dermal filler treatment for cosmetic purposes. Practitioners have three attempts at both the written exam and practical assessment to achieve a pass grade. 

 

On successful completion of the written exam and practical assessment practitioners will be awarded with a VTCT (ITEC) Level 7 Diploma in Clinical Aesthetics and be entitled to use the following post nominals – PgDip(Aes).

 

MAP-IQ provides full support through an online learning platform. This will help you progress through each of the assessment stages with ease.  We also offer ongoing support through our private networking platform and hold regular remote Q&A sessions for all learners
