Published information
The home page states that accreditation is "the formal recognition that a training provider, its courses, and its trainers meet established industry standards". We looked for the standards or criteria used on the home, Pricing, Accreditation Guide and Consultancy and Set Up pages and did not find them; the Accreditation Guide page links a PDF guide whose text could not be read. Pricing is published on the Pricing page: annual accreditation for an unlimited number of courses at £364.80 paid in advance or £38 a month for 12 months (£456 in total); a single course at £55 covering 12 months; and accreditation with a consultancy package at £514.80 a year or £50.50 a month (£606 in total). The Consultancy and Set Up page publishes a 12-month programme at £2,650. The Terms and Conditions page links a downloadable document titled "CCPD Terms and Policies". The Privacy Policy page states "Privacy Policy coming soon". We looked for a complaints procedure on the pages reviewed and did not find one. The site is served over HTTPS.
We looked for a description of how each course is assessed and did not find one on the pages reviewed. The home page states that "every academy receives its own unique Academy Reference Code, every training course is assigned an individual course number" and that each student is issued a Student Identification Number. The Authorised Providers page lists ten academies, each with an "Authentication Academy Number" (one shown as pending). The Pricing page states that accreditation covers 12 months. The ICO register lists Cosmetology Cpd Ltd, reference ZC241794, registered on 8 September 2026, at the published address; the same entry was returned by a search by name and appears in the results of a search by the published postcode. Accessed 28 October 2026.

Advertising and claims
The home page states that Cosmetology CPD "offers far more than your average accrediting body" and, of its numbering system, "This means no one can copy or falsify a certificate from YOUR academy." The Meet the Team page states that the founder "has created the highest, best GDPR protected accreditation to date" and that "we feel that no other accrediting body really has the skill to help their academy partners with students who may fall under different learning categories or types." The Consultancy and Set Up page describes its programme as "like no other". Accessed 28 October 2026.
