The moment you enrol you get immediate access to the UK’s most advanced ear wax removal pre-learning platform, built in-house by our own audiology and ear wax removal specialist clinicians. You cover ear anatomy, conditions, infection control, consent and the theory behind all three removal methods before you arrive.

Yes. It is CPD-accredited and aligned with BSA, NICE and HCPC standards. The certificate is recognised by insurers, employers and regulators for professional development purposes.

Yes, provided you have insurance and equipment. The Training + Equipment tier walks you out with the kit; you will need to arrange your own indemnity insurance. We include post-course support to help you set up.

No. We teach from the ground up. Some clinical familiarity (otoscope handling, infection control basics) helps you get the most out of the day, but you don’t need to have done wax removal before.

Roughly half the day. After morning theory, you spend the afternoon on supervised microsuction, irrigation and manual instrumentation. You don’t leave until you’ve done all three.

We work with you on the day to get you there. If we cannot sign you off (this is rare), we’ll arrange a free repeat session at a future date. Nobody pays twice.

Yes. Hot lunch, unlimited tea and coffee, and refreshments throughout the day. All included in the course price.

Yes. Every training venue has free on-site parking. If you are travelling by train, most venues are within 15 minutes of a major station.
