APT offers two bloodborne pathogen training options for tattoo practitioners. Whether you're new to the craft or maintaining your annual certification, understanding which course is right for you matters — not just for compliance, but for your clients' safety and your professional standing.
Â
New to tattooing? Starting an apprenticeship? Always start with the PDTT. The Online BBP Refresher is designed for experienced practitioners maintaining their annual certification — it is not a substitute for comprehensive initial training. That said, we always encourage every practitioner to go above and beyond with our PDTT course annually, because your clients deserve that level of care and expertise.
