OTHM level 6 diploma certification occupational health and safety

Qualifications

Our qualifications are made up of the Regulated Qualification Framework (RQF) rules which provides flexible ways to get a qualification. Qualifications at the same level are a similar level of difficulty, but the size and content of the qualifications can vary.

The Level 4, 5 and 6 diploma qualifications are equivalent to Year 1, 2 and 3 (Final year) respectively of a three-year UK Bachelor’s degree. Each level consists of 120 credits. Completing any of the level 4, 5 and 6 qualifications will enable learners a progression to the next level of higher education at UK universities.

The Level 6 qualifications in Clinical Aesthetic Injectable Therapies are designed to enable learners / practitioners to provide the highest standards of patient and client care during all stages of delivering cosmetic / aesthetic injectable therapies.

By achieving these qualifications, learners will acquire the knowledge, skills and competence to administer treatments safely and appropriately, adhering to the principles of ‘do no harm’ and promoting public health at all times.

Registered healthcare professionals e. g. doctors, dentists, nurse prescribers, allied health professionals, independent pharmacist prescribers.

In addition to formal identification documentation and previous qualification certificates, learners must produce evidence of registration with an appropriate professional body* e. g. GMC, GDC, NMC. HCPC

Registered healthcare professionals from any group who do not hold prescribing rights must provide evidence of working under the clinical oversight of a professional who has regulated prescribing rights.

*Learners may not be registered for either qualification if they have any conditions noted on their professional body (PRSB) registration. OTHM require

centres to check applicants’ status with regards to PRSB registration prior to registration on the qualification and evidence of this retained for scrutiny by OTHM.

Nurses and Allied-healthcare professionals (and those registered with the Health and Care Professions Council) who are not independent prescribers are subject to CPSA / JCCP requirements for working under the clinical oversight of an appropriate professional i. e. they must have access to, and support from, experienced clinicians who are able to deal with medical emergency situations and complications and, have independent prescribing rights.

Applicants registered with non UK regulatory bodies

Applicants who provide evidence of registration on non UK regulatory bodies e. g. The Medical Board of Australia; will have their registration confirmed and vetted on that register and their eligibility to practice in the UK must be confirmed through the appropriate professional register. If there is no evidence of registration, or conditions are noted on that registration, the applicant will not be eligible to register for the qualification. Non UK regulatory bodies must be nationally recognised to be considered a suitable register. Each application will be evaluated on a case by case or individual basis.

English requirements: If a learner is not from a majority English-speaking country, they must provide evidence of English language competency. For more information visit English Language Expectations page in the OTHM website.

Equivalences

Overview

Accounting and finance are at the very heart of business operations. From banking to manufacturing, from huge service industries to micro businesses, the ability to manage, plan and account for money is still the ultimate measure of business success and the key driver of growth.

Many accountants occupy key managerial positions in business, yet few are qualified managers. In the increasingly complex modern business environment, there is a high demand for skilled professionals who can work flexibly in teams across business boundaries.

The objective of the OTHM Level 6 Diploma in Accounting and Business qualification is to provide learners with the knowledge and skills required by a middle or senior manager in an organisation, and who may be involved in managing organisational finances, investment and risk, audit and assurance, or research.
