ProQual Level 6 Award in Phlebotomy for Aesthetic Practice

The ProQual Level 6 Award in Phlebotomy for Aesthetic Practice provides a nationally recognised qualification for those working in the clinical cosmetic industries and who wish to demonstrate their skill and competence at safely obtaining a venous blood sample.

The aims of this qualification are:

• To allow candidates to develop and demonstrate their knowledge of adult phlebotomy.
• To allow candidates to develop and demonstrate their competence at providing adult phlebotomy services.

Candidates who complete this qualification, and who wish to further develop their skills may wish to consider other Level 6 and Level 7 qualifications in the ProQual Aesthetics suite.
