  • Will this qualification be recognised in the nail & beauty industry?

    Yes!

    We offer accreditations from the Beauty Guild and certifications from City & Guilds, both of which are fully recognised within the beauty and nail industry.

    Additionally, we offer workshops as refreshers or for CPD, and you will receive a certificate of attendance for these.

  • Will the course run if there are less than the minimum required students?

    It depends on the course.

    For day courses, we can offer one-to-one sessions if needed. However, for funded courses, we may need to reschedule the session until we can meet the minimum number of learners. If numbers are too low, we will always do our best to rearrange and find a suitable time for everyone.

  • How much practice will I receive on the day?

    For a day course, your morning will begin with a theoretical session, followed by the rest of the day focused on practical training. We aim to provide you with all the hands-on experience you need to master your skill. You will also be given case studies to complete, which will help reinforce your learning.
