Q: Is this a tattoo academy?

A: No.

 Q: Will I be tattooing people?

A: No.

 What this course is not:

• A replacement for an apprenticeship

• A means of qualifying to tattoo clients

• A course providing art lessons

The course is delivered by a clinical microbiologist involved in the development of national tattoo hygiene guidance, alongside an experienced tattoo practitioner who provides practical context.

Finding proper training to become a tattoo artist can be difficult. Apprenticeships are rare and sometimes exploitative.

You could buy a tattoo machine and inks online and attempt to teach yourself, but tattooing involves creating a controlled wound on yourself or others, so knowledge about safety and technique is essential.
