It is intended for those who wish to work as a Beauty Therapist and have competency in all facial and body treatments, including electrical treatments.
To enrol on this course you must be qualified to Beauty Therapy NVQ Level 2 standard.
There is a considerable level of theory which includes anatomy and physiology. You are required to commit to at least eleven hours of home study each week. Additional commercial salon sessions are held to ensure you maintain your skills once learned.
The qualification is achieved through continuous assessment in both theory and practical treatments, which are undertaken in the salon using various methods. A portfolio is compiled as part of the evidence for the awarding body, which will contain your projects and evidence of your practical abilities.
Theoretical assessments require written answers, and are mostly completed online.
All learners continue working on clients even after achieving competency to ensure standards are maintained.
You would now have the qualifications to seek employment.
NVQ Level 3 skills are highly sought after and successful completion of this course will ensure employment as a full-time Beauty Therapist in any organisation. These may include luxury cruise liners, exclusive Spas in the UK and overseas, airlines and airports and opportunities leading to management positions. Many people go on to open their own businesses and after five years of commercial experience you could become a teacher.
