Short Course providers can be found here abtinsurance.co.uk/Accreditation/FindAccreditedCollege and National courses can be found at www.gov.uk/find-a-regulated-qualification

For some of our slightly more advanced insurable options, the member must have a prerequisite to gain insurance. A prerequisite basically refers to the member having the core skills necessary, needed, or required (in some cases experience) to perform the more advanced treatment.
