The promise. Two days. The honest read-out on where you stand under England's evolving aesthetics regulation, before someone else decides for you.
The From Regulation to Reputation Mini is a free two-day reality check on UK aesthetics regulation from Aesthetics Unlocked, taught by Bernadette Tobin RN MSc. It gives practitioners in England the Traffic Light System, Red, Amber, Green, to read their scope of practice and their risk gaps at a glance.

Frequently asked
Before youenrol.
Is this England-only?
Yes. The licensing framework taught is specific to England, including CQC registration. The JCCP, CPSA, MHRA and ASA cover the whole UK. Practitioners in Scotland, Wales, or Northern Ireland will find the principles useful but the licensing detail differs.
Will this turn me into a regulator?
No. The aim is to help you recognise risk before risk recognises you, not to make you an expert in legislation. You'll leave able to triage decisions the way regulators already do.
What's the difference between this and the full RAG Pathway?
The Mini gives you awareness, the conceptual framework. The full RAG Pathway (4 weeks, paid) gives you the documentation, governance systems, and defensible practice records to actually operate inside it day-to-day.
