Experience behind ABP
Experience behind ABP
ABP was developed from decades of experience in education, beauty training and course development. Its founders brought together experience in teaching, professional beauty practice, training delivery and course development, with the organisation shaped around the needs of learners, tutors and training academies.
That educational background remains central to the way ABP approaches accreditation. We believe a good beauty course should do more than simply contain the right information: it should have clear learning outcomes, a logical structure, appropriate assessment and provide learners with the knowledge and practical understanding they need to work safely and professionally.
Our approach
Our approach
ABP is committed to practical, proportionate accreditation. We want standards to be meaningful without creating unnecessary bureaucracy for training providers.
Our focus is on whether training is safe, professionally structured, educationally sound and suitable for the treatment or subject being taught.
