What is ITEC & VTCT Accreditation – And Why Does It Matter?

Why ITEC & VTCT Qualifications Matter in a Professional Barber Course
When you sign up for a barber course at Mr. Mills Barber Academy, you’re not just learning how to fade, blend, or shave — you’re earning a qualification that’s respected worldwide.
Our courses are accredited by ITEC and VTCT — two of the most recognised awarding bodies in the hair, beauty, and wellness industries. That means when you complete our Level 2 or Level 3 barber training, your certificate doesn’t just prove you’ve got skills — it shows employers and clients that you’ve trained to an internationally approved standard.
So whether you’re searching for a barber course near me, planning to open your own barbershop, or hoping to take your clippers abroad, ITEC & VTCT qualifications give you the edge.
You’ll leave Mr. Mills with more than confidence — you’ll leave with a globally recognised barbering certification that opens doors across Ireland, the UK, and beyond.
