CQC registration requirements depend on your professional background, where you provide the service and how your earwax removal service is structured.

For registered healthcare professionals, CQC registration is generally required when providing regulated activities independently. However, requirements can vary depending on your individual circumstances.

During the course, we provide general guidance on CQC registration and setting up your service. We also recommend checking the latest CQC guidance or seeking independent advice to ensure you meet all applicable regulatory requirements.

Our learning journey begins before you arrive. Delegates receive comprehensive pre-course learning covering the theory in advance, allowing the course day to focus on assessment, hands-on practical training and personalised guidance. This approach makes the training both efficient and highly practical.
