ABT Certifications - City Hair And Beauty Academy

ABT-Accredited Hair, Nail & Beauty Certification in London

Already skilled but need a recognised certificate to prove it? At City Hair & Beauty Academy, we offer ABT-accredited certification across hair, nail and beauty in London. Designed for working professionals who already have the practical ability, our service verifies your existing skills and issues a recognised, accredited certificate — no teaching sessions required.

What Is ABT Accreditation?

ABT (Associated Beauty Therapists) is one of the UK’s most respected accreditation and insurance bodies for the hair and beauty industry. An ABT-accredited certificate is widely recognised across the profession and helps practitioners secure the insurance they need to work safely, professionally and confidently.

Certification for Skilled Professionals — No Teaching Required

Our ABT route is different from a traditional course. It’s built specifically for practitioners who already have the skills and experience but need a recognised, accredited certificate to back them up. Rather than teaching sessions, we assess and verify your existing knowledge and competence, then issue your ABT-accredited certificate accordingly. It’s the ideal route if you’re already performing treatments and simply need formal, recognised certification to support your insurance and grow your business.

Areas We Certify

  • Hairdressing — recognised certification for experienced hair professionals.
  • Nails — accredited certification across nail treatments and services.
  • Beauty — certification for a range of professional beauty treatments.

Who It’s For

  • Self-taught or experienced practitioners who never gained a formal certificate
  • Professionals trained abroad who need UK-recognised certification
  • Practitioners who need an accredited certificate to obtain insurance
  • Salon owners and staff looking to formalise their existing skills
