This course is suited to students interested in a career in the beauty therapy industry. Students will be trained in a realistic working environment in the College’s state of the art salons. Students will experience the normal day-to-day running of a beauty salon and will engage with customers. This will ensure students are ready to begin an exciting journey within the beauty industry and will open various pathways for progression. The College would recommend a work placement to assist with the development of skills. This course is also available as an Apprenticeship.
Students will be required to purchase a uniform and kit upon commencement of the programme.
