Laser Core Of Knowledge
The Laser 'Core of Knowledge' training module will 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. It also covers relevant standards and regulations governing their use in a professional setting in different jurisdictions.
It is a legal obligation in some UK jurisdictions (Wales & N.I.) that a 'Core of Knowledge' course from a recognised or approved trainer is provided as a requirement of registration and/or licencing.
