CPD · VTCT Level 2 Award · 1 day
The most important day of training you’ll ever book.
Close-contact professionals see what others can’t. Parting hair at the chair, working on the scalp and neck, treating skin — you are uniquely placed to spot the early warning signs of skin cancer. This one-day, knowledge-based VTCT award turns that position into potentially life-saving vigilance.
Course at a glance
What you’ll learn in a day
- The main types of skin cancer, including melanoma and non-melanoma variations
- The ABCDE detection framework — asymmetry, borders, colours, diameters and evolving moles
- High-risk zones mapped to your industry — the scalp and neck for hair professionals, limbs for therapists
- Sensitive communication — how to advise a client to seek medical attention calmly, professionally and without alarm
Why certify your whole team
A badge of trust your clients can feel.
Advertising that every member of staff is certified in skin cancer awareness builds a level of clinical trust few salons can match — and extends genuine care beyond the treatment itself.
For hair professionals, the award is also a natural first step toward advanced study in trichology and scalp health.

- Team discounts make whole-business certification affordable
- Universally accessible — no prerequisites of any kind
