Why train with ATAI?

Practical – Return to ATAI for practical training on models supplied by ATAI.

Graduate Clinic – Our graduate clinic is where you hone your skills while increasing your confidence. We have modelled the clinic to slowly introduce you to operating at a typical clinic speed. We do this through a time stepping programme where each clinic day reduces the time allowance per client from an hour in the beginning to thirty minutes by the third clinic. We also change the consultation process, at the beginning along with your mentor you perform the entire pre-consultation process, that includes, consent forms, medical and health history questionnaire and pre-treatment photos. By the third clinic, our aesthetic nurse performs the pre-consultation again mirroring the process in a typical aesthetics clinic. Our aesthetic nurse then leads the client into your treatment room where you then perform the typical treatment consultation process. Our teaching programme is unique in the aesthetics training sector has been formed through the understanding of what is required to produce competent, confident, aesthetic practitioners.

Our Level 7 online learning allows you to study in your own time and at your own pace.

A comprehensive theory programme might be the cornerstone of our aesthetic medicine courses but practical hands-on training is the foundation. Training to a Level 7 standard produces competent practitioners furthermore our ability to train you on many evidence-based modalities takes you on a journey from injecter to a specialist in non-surgical aesthetics.

DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY FOR AESTHETIC PRACTITIONERS: DOCTORS, INJECTORS, NURSES, MEDSPAS AND CLINICS

ATAI was formed with one primary goal in mind, to provide the highest level theory and practical based education for the aesthetics sector. Our unquivering determination to ensure the best possible outcome for the general public starts in the education treatment pathway. We are an open and transparent vested interest group that believes injectable cosmetics have no place being taught to unregulated practitioners. Unregulated practitioners may not have the same training or accountability as regulated health professionals. Members of the public who choose to use the services of an unregulated practitioner have no way of holding that individual accountable for the care or services received. Training providers that facilitate training to an unregulated practitioner may not be breaking the law; however, it is unethical. Ultimately it is the general public that is the loser, often emotionally and or physically scared for life and as such, we disparage any organisation that encourages or upholds this practice.

ATAI is conveniently located in Swords, no need to battle Dublin City traffic, with plenty of parking, easy access from the M1 and M50. People travel from all over Ireland and Northern Ireland to attend training at ATAI, you could say, regardless if you are in Cork, Mayo, Galway or Belfast ATAI is worth the travel to set your medical aesthetics career on the right pathway.
